[Verse 1]
Bloodied and scorned, tattered and torn
Hanging on by a thread
With death at our door, the cannons still roar
We shall not bend
If the flag doesn't wave at the end of the day
What is there left to save?
Tell me, what is there left to save?
And if there's nothing left to save

[Pre-Chorus]
It's clear there's nothing left to lose
I'll strike the match and light the fuse

[Chorus]
Set me on fire, so I can rise
From the demons I'm keeping inside my mind
Into the flames, all that remains
Is what I needed to keep on believing

[Post-Chorus]
Won't turn back, I'm a phoenix, phoenix
(Won't turn back) Phoenix, phoenix
(Won't turn back)

[Verse 2]
Cities asleep under my feet
Sea of a billion lights
I'm taking the leap out of this dream
Into the purple heights

[Pre-Chorus]
It's clear there's not a better view
I'll strike the match and light the fuse

[Chorus]
Set me on fire, so I can rise
From the demons I'm keeping inside my mind
Into the flames, all that remains
Is what I needed to keep on believing
[Post-Chorus]
Won't turn back, I'm a phoenix, phoenix
(Won't turn back) Phoenix, phoenix
(Won't turn back)

[Bridge]
Sticks and stones ought to know
That I won't be broken
Highs and lows come and go
But I live in the moment
Sticks and stones ought to know
That I won't be broken
That I won't be broken

[Chorus]
Set me on fire, so I can rise
From the demons I'm keeping inside my mind (Inside my mind)
Into the flames, all that remains (All that remains)
Is what I needed to keep on believing (Yeah)

[Post-Chorus]
Won't turn back, I'm a phoenix, phoenix
(Won't turn back) Phoenix, phoenix
(Won't turn back) Phoenix (Don't turn back), phoenix
(Won't turn back) Phoenix, phoenix
(Won't turn back)
