Goodbye Paradise

You know this now

you have been dreaming of regrets

the morning wakes you in a puddle of your sweat

The time is now

you have been planning your escape

from smiles to frowns all in a moment compensates

The things you loved

are they not looking to return

your mind decides that it would never be too late

though notice how

the depths are calling out your name

you're going down, down, down, down

further away from your Paradise

You rest your weary head back down

with troubled innocence your crying out inside

You say..

Goodbye Paradise

So long Paradise

farewell you bid to the things you love

Goodbye Paradise

So long Paradise

the road ahead is paved with no return

While there's still time

you took to cherish the collage

of all the pieces of the yesterdays you know

How little time

you feel the seconds counting down

there's not a bit part of your life that wants to go

Into the night

into the emptiness outside

you throw your voice into the darkness as you hide

Your empty soul

with fear that's building up inside

will there come a day where you'll step back into the light

You rest your worries to the sound

of troubled innocence you're crying out inside

You say..

Goodbye Paradise

So long Paradise

farewell you bid to the things you love

Goodbye Paradise

So long Paradise

the road ahead is paved with no return
