In The Air Tonight (Phil Collins Cover)

LYRICS:   
Lies, your word’s a work of fiction
I am feeding your addiction
While you stand here saying
Everything I want to hear
Pierce my heart that beats away at your time
Tears, a punctuation at the end of your line
And I can’t let go

There’s no complication to this conversation
We are stuck in the wrong scene
And everytime I try, I never break free
There’s no use in fighting
You are so inviting
I keep coming back for more
Fatally yours 

Why did I never see it coming?
Tired of the game that you’re running
But with nothing to lose 
And something prove
How can I walk away?
Pierce my heart that beats away at your time
Tears, a punctuation at the end of your line
And I can’t let go

There’s no complication to this conversation
We are stuck in the wrong scene
And everytime I try, I never break free
There’s no use in fighting
You are so inviting
I keep coming back for more
Fatally yours 

Fatally yours
I’m fatally yours
I’ve been here before
Begging for more
Fatally yours

Fatally Yours

LYRICS:
Lay it down tell me how you really feel
Give it up screaming it was never real
But I'm still breathing, my heart's still beating away
Packed up all your shit and now you're out the door
To find yourself hoping that there's something more

But quitting is contagious and you're just sick
You think you can have what you left behind
I'm over it
 
Your love is overrated, so faded through 
I'd rather be dead than here with you
You broke my heart, left me frustrated
That much is true
I’d rather be dead than here with you
 
Came into my world and left me here to die
You tried to pull the plug but I'm still alive
And I'm not going down without a fight
I’m off of your hook where you left sinking down
Out of your orbit, just spinning around
I can talk the talk and walk the walk
You're losing the game, you played yourself

Your love is overrated, so faded through 
I'd rather be dead than here with you
You broke my heart, left me frustrated
That much is true
I’d rather be dead than here with you
 
I’m gone before you ever gotta hand on it
Goodbye
You know that I could never stand for it
To all you motherfuckers thinking you can replace me
Lies can cross it out but can never erase me

Here With You

LYRICS:
Like a nightmare living in a daydream
Everything that’s real is never what it seems
Through the distance I can see the moon gleam
Through the silence I can hear your words scream
There's no way out, it's going down
It's time to wake up

Set it off set it off do it right now
Light it up light it up let it burn down

Thinking lately nothing’s worth saving
Aggravating and I’m suffocating
Two faced and i just need to break free
Your fake love never meant a damn thing
There's no way out, it's going down
It's time to wake up

Set it off set it off do it right now
Light it up light it up let it burn down

Light it up watch it burn
Light it up watch it burn
Light it up watch it burn
Light it up watch let the motherfucker burn

Savage

LYRICS:
Had a dream I lost my soul
Left it spinning down a hole
As you look in my eyes
There’s enough to decide, I got nothing to hide
You tell me that you're fine
But I know what’s lying deep inside your mind
But you wear this disguise with your knife in my back every time
It’s out of line

All these words in my head keep on forcing my hand
They’re pushing me to the edge

So take it all
And leave me here with my back
Against the wall
While you're living dream
I’m awake
And while you're busy living your life
I’m living a lie
 
I’m an ever changing drone in a world that’s set in stone
All the anger falls, the demons crawl and I don’t know where to go

You tell me that you're fine
But I know what’s lying deep inside your mind
But you wear this disguise with your knife in my back every time
It’s out of line

All these words in my head keep on forcing my hand
They’re pushing me to the edge

So take it all
And leave me here with my back
Against the wall
While you're living dream
I’m awake
And while you're busy living your life
I’m living a lie

Living A Lie

LYRICS:
Tie me down and keep me here inside
With the touch of your lips
As they press
Against mine
 
Silence me and take away my sight
Leaving me with my heartbeat racing
Through the night, through the night

Use me
Making your mark
Abuse me
Leaving your scars
Keep me begging
Pull on the chains of my heart

Felt the pain but I can’t stay away
I would give everything, I would give anything
For another taste
 
Surrendering my mind to your embrace
With your force around my body
Your hand against my face

Go ‘til you can't take it
Know that you can have it 
I said that I’m yours
I’m so fucking yours

Chains of My Heart

LYRICS:
Am I floating
Leaving the shore?
Can I beg you to push me
Until I can't take any more?

I can’t let you go

Be my waves
My ebb and flow 
Take me down in your undertow

I hear your whisper
Calling my name
When I kissed her… truly
It just never really felt the same

I can’t let you go

Be my waves
My ebb and flow 
Take me down in your undertow

Undertow

LYRICS: 
At night
In my sleep 
Like a knife
Cuts so deep
The dawn is close to breaking
Soon I will be waking from this dream

Everything can fall away
Left to wait another day
Ripping right out of my hands
Through my fingers like grains of sand

Talking like strangers
Wrapped in our anger
Tell me what's going down 
We’ll end back here sooner or later
I know what comes around, goes around
Crowded in an empty room
I can't stop thinking about you
Talking like strangers
Wrapped in our anger
Tell me what's going down 

Too far
To reach out
I can't shake
This self doubt
I never seem to have the 
Answer to the questions you seek

Strangers

LYRICS:
I wanted you to know
That you are not alone
I’m with you

Take my hand and run
We could both be one

We will fly like shooting stars
Into the night
We’ll burn forever
Floating across the sky

Don't you look now
It's a long way down 
Never lose hope
Never touch the ground
Don’t ever fade away

Now we could rule the world
If only for a moment 
You and I

Don't you look now
It's a long way down 
Never lose hope
Never touch the ground
Don’t ever fade away

You take ahold of me
As I take control of you
I want you to let me in
Will you just let me in?

Into The Night

LYRICS:
You’re not alone
I’m just a moment away
I’ll hear your call
And not a second too late
I’ll brace your fall
So don’t be afraid
What gets me by
Is that you still believe

The sun will come down
I’ll be around
And I’m never gonna leave your side
No matter what we’ll be alright

I'll be your home
When you are caught in the rain
If you're on the run
Ill help you make an escape
When all hope is gone
And the light starts to fade
What gets me by
Is that you still believe

A Moment Away

LYRICS:
All the things that I’ve done
All the secrets I hide
I’m keeping from you now
You seem so fucking blind
Focused on your world
You forgot about mine
If it’s not what you want
How the hell can you deny?
So happy in your ignorance
And I am getting by
But all I want is you
And everything inside
 
It hurts so much to lie
It cuts me like a knife
It leaves me here to die
It takes away my life

So you call this love?
I’ve never felt so far away from your heart
Was it not enough?
It’s like we’re dead from the start

Tripping on your words
Has me falling from the sky
The heaven we created
Was all in my mind
You were never what I pictured
But neither was I
Awake at night I’m watching you
From the corner of my eye
The distance is growing further
You're straying from my sight
The love, the warmth, the feeling
Will fade into white

So you're fine
Youre alright
But your eyes don't paint that scenery

Confession Booth

LYRICS:
You and I are living in a shadow of doubt
Secret lives, afraid to let our hearts break out
Wasted time on how to keep our world contained
Break the mold, should we throw ourselves against the grain
 
But if I think twice then I will never decide
I close my eyes and bridge the divide
I’m on your side
 
Our bodies burning across the fire
The world keeps turning with our desire
Put your hand into mine, I’ll take you higher
As we rise above the flames
 
Cast aside it’s hard to live outside of the light
What is wrong has never ever felt so right
 
But if I think twice then I will never decide
I close my eyes and bridge the divide
I’m on your side
 
Our bodies burning across the fire
The world keeps turning with our desire
Put your heart into mine, I’ll take you higher
As we rise above the flames

Stars In The Sky

The Phoenix Philosophy is an Electronic Rock band from Minneapolis, MN. The idea behind “the phoenix philosophy” applies to the band’s sonic evolution from into a heavily electronic influenced powerhouse consisting of members Jesse Weber (vocals/keys/programming), Stephanie Thorup (vocals/guitar/keys), Chad Helmonds (drums/programming), and Caio Thomas (bass/keys). Elements of commanding guitars and introducing dueling male/female vocals over eerie synths creates a sonic blend of rock and electronic (pop) that matures and inspires with every release.

With several sold out shows at venues such as the Fine Line Music Cafe and First Avenue/7th Street in their hometown under their belt, The Phoenix Philosophy have also made their way across the midwest over the last few years. Most recently, they played to packed houses at The Rave/Eagles Club (Milwaukee, WI) and The Beat Kitchen (Chicago, IL). The band has shared the stage alongside national touring bands including Switchfoot, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, The Dangerous Summer, Icon For Hire, and Throw The Fight. The Phoenix Philosophy have also received airplay on commercial and internet radio. Stations such as 93x (KXXR Minneapolis, MN), Rockin’ 101 (WHMH St. Cloud, MN), Fearless Radio (Chicago, IL), and MIT Radio (Boston, MA) have spun tracks from the band’s growing catalog. 

The Phoenix Philosophy have proven themselves as an unstoppable force and will continue to transcend beyond their roots in the Minneapolis music scene.
