Resilience

The Phoenix rises from the ashes
Bright carnations and immortelles
You gave yourself a hundred lashes
The opera singer sets the tone quite well
Marvel in the colours of the sun
As the dusk horizon is set aflame
Weeping discreetly with relief
Dissolving nightfall brings the fire brigade

Yeah you know that you’re one in a million
It’d be a shame to diminish your brilliance
You gotta use some restraint
Maintain strong willed
Self motivated resilience

Do, do, do, do, do you still remember?

We’re all apart of the furniture
Hacienda Lugubrious
Orphans of the universe
In a soulless city under a curse

Yeah you know that you’re one in a million
It’d be a shame to diminish your brilliance
You gotta use some restraint
Maintain strong willed
Self motivated resilience

Do, do, do, do, do you still remember?
