Lyrics Phoenix (Recording Session Mix) - Satyricon

Into the night
My long suffering friend
We'll be reborn again
Right here where everything ends

Face to the sky
A trail of smoke in the air
Pass into emptiness
New life's awaiting you there

Slave to some wretched old
Imagination of yesteryear
Now all that grows in the skulls
Of the living are flowers of fear

The morning red
A sun-god calling you back
Down through a thousand years
White embers whistle and crack

Await the dawn with her kiss of redemption
My firebird!
You were the queen of the souls of all men
Before there was the w-o-r-d

The morning new, the morning red
The fiery promise
Mad swirling smoke wheels round her head
Dedication to the queen of souls, her lost disciples
And when the fire's work is done
Our time to be reborn
