I have stolen two years
And pocket change
From the steel trap
Of death’s icy teeth
I let the old flesh die
And swam towards a new flame
The weight of who I’d been
Chains rusted and broken
Sink to ocean floor
As I grope in the dark for a new name
In all this inky night and incandescence
I have transformed like a Phoenix
Lit up in fire with my own luminescence
Giving birth on my funeral pyre
To my own happiness
And in all the madness
The best event by far
Has been you joining me here in it
