As Paradise BurnsRed sun is arisingWaking from a sweet dream Face soot-stained A child cries Is this all we amount to when childhood ends? Wounds that won’t heal Valleys of steel Hope dies Bowels burn Oceans churn Hard lives Memories that haunt Faces are gaunt Sweet lies Hunger grows Blood there flows Heart cries In a sense have we gone insane? Is this all a joke? Forests up in smoke? In our minds Have we lost the one thing That makes us human Empathic beings? /Watch as paradise burns All that we’ve ever fought for/ Is ashes now Night falls on our journey Waking from a sweet dream The sights that greet us are wrenching Bite my fist trying not to scream Wounds that won’t heal Valleys of steel Hope dies Bowels burn Oceans churn Hard lives Memories that haunt Faces are gaunt Sweet lies Hunger grows Blood there flows Heart cries In a sense have we gone insane? Is this all a joke? Forests up in smoke? In our minds Have we lost the one thing That makes us human Empathic beings? /Watch as paradise burns All that we’ve ever fought for/ /Watch as paradise burns All that we’ve ever fought for/ Is ashes now |
