The Song of the Phoenix Songtext
von Andy Fairley

Disregard all safe options
Bite into the short pillow of the nervous patient
Carve your own image in the belly of future developments
Mute compliance is the fixed bite of amateur wrestlers
Initiative is the dropkick of champions
Craft every action with precision


Distrust all blueprints
Note their deficiencies, then file them under "common notes"
While drafting your own
Open to change, alone in its uniqueness

Beware of imitations
Their heads will appear
As they mime to the raw energy of others
And cast their dull reflections on fairground mirrors
Baroque glass distorts through overuse
Gossamer wings burn easy
