Days Of Phoenix Lyrics

I remember when
I was told the story of crushed velvet,
Candle wax, and
dried up flowers.

The figure on the bed,
All dressed up in roses,
calling...
Beckoning to sleep... offering a dream.

The words were as
mystical
As purring animals.
The circle of rage... the ghosts on the
stage appeared.

The time was so tangible
I'll never let it
go.
Ghost stories handed down, reached secret tunnels below.

No one
could see me.

(Ohhhhh)
I fell into yesterday.
(Ohhhhh)
Our
dreams seemed not far away.
I want to, I want to, I want to
stay.
(Ohhhhh)
I fell into fantasy.

The words were as
mystical
As purring animals.
The circle of rage... the ghosts on the
stage appeared.

The time was so tangible
I'll never let it
go.
Ghost stories handed down, reached secret tunnels below.

No one
could see me.

(Ohhhhh)
I fell into yesterday.
(Ohhhhh)
Our
dreams seemed not far away.
I want to, I want to, I want to
stay.
(Ohhhhh)
I fell into fantasy.

(Backround Oh's)
The girl
on the wall always waited for me,
And she was always smiling.
The teenage
death boys,
The teenage death girls... and everyone was dancing.
Nothing
could touch us then,
No one could change us then,
Everyone was
dancing.
Nothing could hurt us then,
No one could see us then,
And
everyone was dancing,
Everyone was dancing.

No one could see
me....

(ooooh)
I fell into yesterday
(ooooh)
our dreams seemed
not far away
I want to, I want to, I want to stay
(ooooh)
I fell into
fantasy

Our dreams seemed not far away...
Our dreams seemed not far
away, hey....
Our dreams seemed not far away....
I fell into fantasy...
