Lyrics
Paranoid Inlay
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Serenity is a problem
When you get this close to Heaven
But you really want to see
The wonders of the underworld
They caught Saint Peter's disease
As he rattled his keys
Serenity is a problem
Serenity is a problem
Such a paranoid inlay
Hand-painted, pain by numbers, just join the dots
Serenity is a problem
Serenity is a problem
Bloody British bulldozers
These vegetables are suicidal
It seems concussion suits you
It seems concussion suits you
Dear Diary, I must take risks
I must not be afraid of failure
What do I need to give up?
Crystalline ladders, shiny things, mirror-balls
On a clear day I can see forever
That the underworld is my oyster
