Phoenix

[Intro]
It's time
To leave the past behind me
My future's
What I make it to be
No more procrastinating
Control my own destiny

[Verse 1]
I don't wanna spend the rest of my life
Feeling down
But that's what happens every time
I look around
These dreaded memories
Keep coming back
Again to remind me of shit from my past
I've done so many things I regret
Why is it so hard to extract my distress?
Emotional wounds self-inflicted by guilt
Compunctional feeling destroying my will

[Bridge]
I feel constricted
I feel confused
Time to rebuild
From the ground up
State of being
Rediscover
Learn to laugh
New frame of mind
Self-dictate
Stimulate
Hold intact
Mental healing
Transcend
Past due

[Verse 2]
But again, my head's invaded
By those thoughts
Can't shake these feelings
Of sorrow and loss
Imprisoned by tormenting grief
So sick of living a life of defeat
There's no reason
I should put myself through this hell
I dug this hole; I'll climb out of it myself
Now there's no question what I must do
Only I can break this taboo

[Outro]
It's time
To leave the past behind me
My future's
What I make it to be
No more procrastinating
Control my own destiny
