Burn! Gravity Burn!

By Midnight Phoenix

(My lyrics are almost always just a scratch version, so feel free to give me ideas!)

Waking up scorched and diseased
This burning heart bleeds fantasy
A dream in life in dormant soul
It pulls so hard you can’t control

And so it feels like falling snow
Underneath your wings so cold
But then you see the world below
And I can’t help but think that it’s worth it, forgive me

Falling down through misty air
Still burning up in atmosphere
Strength in disguise as frozen tears
Those fiery wings won’t fail you here

And so it feels like falling snow
Underneath your wings so cold
But then you see the world below
And I can’t help but think that it’s worth it, forgive me

Perched on top the edge of clouds
So quiet you can barely hear the sounds
Of those who screamed at you to fall
A pleasure to know you lost them all

And so it feels like falling snow
Underneath your wings so cold
But then you see the world below
And I can’t help but think that it’s worth it, forgive me

    Perfectly captured...it has so much depth and true poetry to it that it makes a hell of a song. Edgy and rock material...just awesome.

  • A former member wrote: I never understand your disclaimers. This is amazingly beautiful. A haunting sound with words put together perfectly. I loved it from the first word...to the last.

  • A former member wrote: I agree, every time you start a write with a disclaimer I know it's going to be gold. ~Ship!

  • A former member wrote: The third verse of this is awsome, as was the rest. This has a very triumphant feel to it but also a sense that the battle was won at a heavy cost. ~Ship!
