Phoenix Rise

The Lights of the North

(Verse 1)
Scarlet light of sunset paints the sky, a fiery hue
I do believe in happiness, a dream I still pursue
Maybe it's too late, or maybe it's too soon
But I'm tired of living in this land, beneath this moon
(Chorus)
Canes are rustling in the wind, a melancholic sound
The stars above, like scattered diamonds on the ground
There's a silly elation, a fleeting, hollow bliss
You were crying on a quiet night, a memory I can't dismiss
(Verse 2)
I will not deceive myself, the truth is plain to see
What is gone cannot be retrieved, lost to you and me
I do not regret, and I do not shed tears
Just a letter to mother, to quell her growing fears
(Chorus)
Yes, it's settled! Now and forever, it shall be
The night descends, an azure space ablaze for me
It's sad to look at you, my love, so distant and so cold
The golden birch-tree grove has fallen silent, stories untold
(Bridge)
You do not love me, your heart belongs to another
Over there, beyond fields of yellow, I search for my lost brother
Oh, my dear maple, frozen stiff and bare
Silver bluebell, are you singing a mournful prayer?
(Verse 3)
The witch of winter casts her spell, a world of white and grey
Don't you look at me so reproachfully, there's nothing left to say
Let's sit down here, my dearest, beneath the snowy sky
Trinity devotions, morning cannon rite, a lullaby
(Chorus)
Don't you force a smile, girl, your eyes betray your pain
I have left my endeared home, searching for the sun again
Sing, old man, to the bloody guitar, a song of love and loss
My love has changed, I know you feel it, at what terrible cost
(Outro)

Light Of Sunset

This is your fight song, a battle cry
Roar it loud, beneath the sky
Let it echo far and wide
You're alive, you will survive
No surrender, no retreat
Feel the fire in your feet
This is your victory, your fate
Rise above, it's not too late

Don't give up

I won't let them win, I'll fight till the end
I'll break these walls down, I'll rise again
I'm unbreakable, I'm a force to be reckoned with
I'll find my way out, I'll never give up

Unbreakable

This song is a reflection of the overwhelming and often isolating experience of living in a modern, digital world. It's about feeling disconnected and lost in the artificiality of our surroundings, where everything feels like a cycle that never ends. The lyrics convey a sense of burnout and exhaustion, as if the pressures of society and technology are draining the soul. The imagery of "neon ash" in the veins and "shattered pixels of life" symbolizes the fragmentation of our identity and the struggle to find genuine connection and purpose amidst the screens and deadlines.
