Eroding like the phoenix
The rage inside me burns
I've taken my oasis
and made it this desert

Vultures flying, gliding, biting, ruin what I have
A skeleton, hallowed out
The outline of a man

Emotions wander to the top
Like a submerged spring
Only to evaporate,
steam in heat so blistering

For as long as I can remember
Feels like I've been
throwing rocks on the fire
Lying and denying

Doing what I can
Just to keep this dim light shining
I guess it's true what they say
Some coal will never be diamonds

The emptiness
True happiness,

I was only given a taste
Until the poison chose to devastate
As far as the smile that grazed my face
Again, the mirage, your ugly hand erased
This arid land I wander offers me no cure
So through the barrenness I must endure
I'm now a mosaic of my broken portrait
And no one but myself to blame for it

Looking out over the overcast and bleak
I know not what I seek
But the c__comb forms only to break
As I stagger into the red
