The Phoenix
Rising from the Shadows: Unveiling the Phoenix's Silent FlightLyrics
It was a late-in-the-summer night
Describing a night toward the end of summer
Nearing the end of a bumpy ride
Approaching the conclusion of a challenging journey
Through the backstage parking lots of the country
Traveling through backstage areas in rural regions
We went past the cars at the fray
Passing by cars in disarray
The cops on bikes
Police officers on bicycles
The security gate
A gate manned by security personnel
Into the trees where the dark comes easy
Entering a wooded area where darkness prevails
See the light of the Venus shining
Observing the brightness of the planet Venus
High over the mid-western plains
Venus visible high in the sky above the Midwest plains
Is it telling you you gotta go?
Questioning if Venus signifies a need to depart
That your heart's been burning way to slow
Suggesting that one's emotions are lagging behind
I guess I'm the last to know again
Realizing something belatedly
But I will rise up, I will
Expressing determination to overcome
Who was the Phoenix anyway?
Questioning the identity of the Phoenix
Just some bird that flew away
Viewing the Phoenix as a bird that departed
And flies still
Noting that the Phoenix continues to fly
It was a late-in-the-summer day
Describing a late summer day
The breeze had blown the clouds away
Clear skies after the breeze disperses the clouds
The fluttering ones were covering the fields
Mentioning clouds covering the fields
I've been walking by myself
Reflecting on solitary walks
I've been thinking about you again
Contemplating thoughts about someone
Maybe one day I'll tell you how I feel
Considering the possibility of sharing feelings in the future
See the light of the satellite tower
Noting the presence of a satellite tower's light
The only thing that's blocking our view
Highlighting the obstruction caused by the tower
Is it telling you what's on my mind
Wondering if the tower represents unspoken thoughts
That I think about you all the time
Admitting to constant thoughts about someone
That I wish for it even thought I know not to
Desiring something despite knowing it might not be advisable
I will rise up, I will
Reiterating determination to rise above challenges
Who was that Phoenix anyway?
Questioning the true nature of the Phoenix
Just some bird that flew away
Perceiving the Phoenix as a departed bird still in flight
And flies still
Acknowledging the continuous flight of the Phoenix
Flies still
Emphasizing the ongoing flight of the Phoenix
You know I will
Reaffirming determination to persist
