Opium City

I only wanted to play my guitar there
And nothing else, only this
I see my dreams die, all days
This don't is easy
Even though it is normal
Opium city slippin' dues, down to see
The only real love is the one we pay
Lady of night said me this in dark
And I know that is true
My father don’t is the better man of world
And I don't be the worse man of world
We have to remember that we are only human
We can't deprive ourselves of living
I don't wanna go to heaven
In heaven don’t have opium
I prefer hell, so I can smoke what I wanna
Everybody is selfish
I'm sorry, but the life is so this
We see all die, all life
And this don't is easy
Even though it is normal
Opium city slippin' dues, down to see
The only real love is the one we pay
Lady of night said me this in dark
And I know that is true
Opium city slippin' dues, down to see
The only real love is the one we pay
Lady of night said me this in dark
And I know that is true
I don't wanna go to heaven
I don't wanna go to heaven
My paradise is here
I don't wanna go to heaven
I don't wanna go to heaven
My paradise is now
Opium city slippin' dues, down to see
The only real love is the one we pay
Lady of night said me this in dark
And I know that is true
