plight of the phoenix (chords)

.

*VERSE 1*

silence the future with a singular stare…

look past the present to your heritage there…

sleep through the day then proceed to the night

(you don’t hafta) live in the moment if it doesn’t feel right

save up your tears for a woman who cares

(we know you’ve been) lonely for years through your standard affairs

.

*REFRAIN 1*

come stay the night…
i’ve had enough of hanging tough without your guiding light

cuz paradise is such a precious show
and i’ve been staring long and hard enough to know

.

*OUTRO*

(“blackout babies”)

whatchya know whatchya know about the world ahead?
i’ve had way too many to say

well what can we do?
and what still stands in our way?

if it’s true, what would you do if faced with the same?
well there’s far too many to name…

never let it get to your head
while you’re still in the game….

it’s not where i wanted to be…
but i’d never complain…
