Phoenix

I know you're scared
I know it'll take a while, take a while for you to let go
If it ever happens
I could set your world aflame, if you'd just let me

Here's the thing about flame
It destroys and rebirths
So my love do you wish?
Do you wish to leave it all behind, your old world
Locked away, do you wish to be set free?

Take my hand, I'll give you a grin
And then the flames will set in
Take hold and burn it all down
It may hurt, that I can't help
The flames will lick at your skin
Bite, tear, break it all down

And my sweet you shall be born again
May the fears you hold turn to ashes on your skin
Something the wind can pick up and carry off
I can take you in my arms and hold you close
I can keep you safe from harm

I know you're scared
But I can keep you safe
If you just let go
