Reveille – Pheonix lyrics
The phoenix, no longer a myth
So strike a match and watch it burn
Our destination's rigor mortis
Cause nobody listens and nobody learns
And your world rejects my kind
And those words have lost their touch
And this place has lost its mind
So now I wanna burn it up
Greed, is based on trust
But ignorance and arrogance rule the grounds
So ashes to ashes and dust to dust
And now I wanna burn this whole-place-down
Leashed, cuffed, locked, hooked
Blow it down, tear it down, burn it down
Blackmail- come take it to a whole new level
Motherfucker, I can't wait 'till I can watch you drown
And you place our trust in you
Reassure us that we're not to blame
But tables turn and we're the first to burn
Now I could never look at you the same
Greed, is based on trust
But ignorance and arrogance rule the grounds
So ashes to ashes and dust to dust
And now I wanna burn this whole-place-down
So take your word and shove it
Come take your deal and shove it
Just take the lie and shove it
I know what you really are
The school in which we learn
Is the fire in which we'll burn
^^^ x4
Burn x7
Humility is based on trust
But ignorance and arrogance rule the grounds
So ashes to ashes, dust to dust
And now I wanna burn this whole place down
(ashes to ashes, dust to dust)
(ashes to ashes and dust to dust)
(ashes to ashes, dust to dust)
So strike a match and watch it burn
Our destination's rigor mortis
Cause nobody listens and nobody learns
And your world rejects my kind
And those words have lost their touch
And this place has lost its mind
So now I wanna burn it up
Greed, is based on trust
But ignorance and arrogance rule the grounds
So ashes to ashes and dust to dust
And now I wanna burn this whole-place-down
Leashed, cuffed, locked, hooked
Blow it down, tear it down, burn it down
Blackmail- come take it to a whole new level
Motherfucker, I can't wait 'till I can watch you drown
And you place our trust in you
Reassure us that we're not to blame
But tables turn and we're the first to burn
Now I could never look at you the same
Greed, is based on trust
But ignorance and arrogance rule the grounds
So ashes to ashes and dust to dust
And now I wanna burn this whole-place-down
So take your word and shove it
Come take your deal and shove it
Just take the lie and shove it
I know what you really are
The school in which we learn
Is the fire in which we'll burn
^^^ x4
Burn x7
Humility is based on trust
But ignorance and arrogance rule the grounds
So ashes to ashes, dust to dust
And now I wanna burn this whole place down
(ashes to ashes, dust to dust)
(ashes to ashes and dust to dust)
(ashes to ashes, dust to dust)
