Lyrics
I know I'm not the one you want me to be all the time
I've let you down in ways you did not deserve to find
I know the best of years are locked up inside our minds
Our past is cast away like a fractured paradigm
Under the shadow of a broken man I feel the fire burnin' deep within
Under the shadow of a broken man I like the phoenix want to rise again
Once a man I used to be now a photo lost in time
And I've seen my choices made have rippled across the line
I hear the echoes sound like a loud and lonely chime
I want to lift the clouds again and break free of all the binds
Under the shadow of a broken man I feel the fire burnin' deep within
Under the shadow of a broken man I like the phoenix want to rise again
I know I'm not someone who is perfect all the time
No doubt I've got a lot to prove to you in time
I know I need to reach and take a step and climb
Your strength is what I need to pull me close behind
As I walk in solitude and reflect upon the miles
You're the one I'm fighting for to forever see you smile
But redemption starts within if I want to reach up higher
And live a life with you again and rise up from the fire
Under the shadow of a broken man I feel the fire burnin' deep within
Under the shadow of a broken man I like the phoenix want to rise again
Under the shadow of a broken man I feel the fire burnin' deep within
Under the shadow of a broken man I like the phoenix want to rise again
