Casual criticisms and cutting jibes
Wear at the strength of the soul
Petty peeves and shrilling whines
I guess it's hard to stop when you're on a roll
And from the ashes they arise
Remember these words when you turn to flee
They can never die, they can only change
Remember the phoenix before you light the gasoline
Indestructible is the soul
But it's malleable just the same
Take all the shots that you wish to take
But you better beware of how they'll change
And from the ashes they arise
Remember these words when you turn to flee
They can never die, they can only change
Remember the phoenix before you light the gasoline
You lay about with your poison tongue
Like a clumsy cow in a china shop
A casual lie to a trusting child
Will you ever learn when it's time to stop
And from the ashes they arise
Remember these words when you turn to flee
They can never die, they can only change
Remember the phoenix before you light the gasoline
