PHOENIX

YOUR WORDS.

SHARP AS NEEDLES  LACED WITH VENOM

PIERCING MY SOUL BUT I DO NOT BLEED

YOUR FIST

LETHAL AS A WARHAMMER

I BEND TO YOUR WILL BUT DO NOT BREAK

TOMORROW I WILL RISE LIKE A PHOENIX

AND MY BROKEN WINGS WILL FLY AWAY FROM YOU 

AND I WILL BE FREE

Lumbering beasts that walked the earth 

To the voice of a whale as it sings

Man came along and walked out of the caves 

With a dream in his heart to fulfil

Believing all lif...

Injustice

I'm beagle or mongrel 

A dog in the street 

The one the van tempts 

With its offer of meat 

I'm taken away in a small, unmarked van 

To be tortured and maimed 

In the Interests of man 

They handle me roughly 

And stun me with darts 

No time for compassion 

Or warmth in their hearts 

The pup on the table 

Has wires in her head 

Her eyes plead injustice 

She...
