[Verse 1]
All this life shrouded in a veil
Of deception in association
But now I will witness thee
With unblinded open eyes

[Pre-Chorus]
Judas, I bury you in your own blood
You only held me down
From what I was supposed to be

[Chorus]
Ascend above the ashes
Of the world I once knew

[Verse 2]
All this life shrouded in a veil
Of deception in association
But now I will witness thee
With unblinded open eyes

[Pre-Chorus]
Judas, I bury you in your own blood
You only held me down
From what I was supposed to be
[Chorus]
Ascend above the ashes
Of the world I once knew
Ascendancy is the only thing this will prove

[Breakdown]
Go
I spread the fuel with ire
Desire (Desire)
To incinerate all
Behold I rise
Phoenix
Phoenix

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
Ascend above the ashes
Ascend above it all
Ascend above the ashes
Ascend above it all

[Guitar Harmony]

[Pre-Chorus]
Judas, I bury you in your own blood
You only held me down
From what I was supposed to be
Was supposed to be
[Chorus]
Ascend above the ashes
Of the world I once knew
Ascendancy is the only thing
This will prove
Ascend above the ashes
Of the world I once knew
Ascendancy is the only thing
This will prove
