Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
our fight goes on runs tireless
Complications will never grow any bigger than this
Where we come from we wont take this anymore
Oh well you better wear
That smile like a crown
At the glimpse of a mistake
You were the one we chose
To try and change it all
You were the one we trusted
To carry us all
Complications will never grow any bigger than this
Where we come from we wont take this anymore
As we burn to the ground
our fight goes on runs tireless
Cover your eyes, cover your eyes
The biggest mistake was the comfortable lies
We wont stand for this
So pick up your weapon and begin the fight
The song "Phoenix" by Sciamachy speaks of a group of people who have been pushed to their limit and are ready to fight back against the injustices they've been forced to endure. The opening lines, "As we burn to the ground, our fight goes on runs tireless," paints a vivid image of destruction and chaos, but it also shows the determination of the group to keep going. They are not giving up, even if it means burning everything to the ground. The chorus, "Complications will never grow any bigger than this. Where we come from we won't take this anymore," shows that they refuse to let the situation get any worse. They won’t tolerate the mistreatment or oppression they’ve experienced any longer.
The second verse is directed at a specific person who seems to have let them down. "You were the one we chose to try and change it all. You were the one we trusted to carry us all," implies that this person had a crucial role in bringing about change, but has failed to deliver. The line "Oh well you better wear that smile like a crown 'cause I will dethrone you at the glimpse of a mistake" suggests that the group holds this person responsible for their situation and they will not hesitate to hold them accountable for any mistake. The bridge, "Cover your eyes, cover your eyes. The biggest mistake was the comfortable lies," further emphasizes this idea of dishonesty and betrayal.
Overall, "Phoenix" is a powerful and intense song that speaks to the struggles of a group of people who refuse to be silent in the face of oppression. It's a call to action, urging others to pick up their weapons and join the fight.

This band can easily land a Record deal with all the big Hollywood record players. I strongly suggest this band to try to sign up deal for a global release with big labels, by showing this music videos. This band is so underrated. They should be a mainstream hollywood band! Best of luck!
@sciamachyband
Thank you so much for the kind words! We've got an EP coming out later this fall which we'll try to do something with!
