Musical Worldview: Pedro the Lion, 'My Phoenix'
“I memorized the verses
And the names of every road
Then studying the history saw how badly things can go
And I thought you saw it too
I swear I learned it all from you
But now our home is burning and you don't have a clue
From a disappointed son
To the city that he loves
The flags you wave around have got me wondering . . .
My Phoenix
My Phoenix
If my Phoenix still shines
If my Phoenix will rise
If the vision of the Christ
My family sees
Is not the revision's greatest enemy
Then I still try to tune it in
When I get lonely
You know I chase around this desert because I think that's where you'll be
Whether high and lifted up
Or the dust becoming dust
Somehow I'm still in love
With my Phoenix
My Phoenix
My Phoenix still shines
My Phoenix will rise”
