Paradise

What a beautiful world, so fragile and fertile

Pain fill the void when boy met girl

He's a - puppet to nature, one year later now

So deeply and sickly in love, it makes him hate her

The average romanticized, American relationship

Sinks, capsized, when either side becomes a slave to it

Conditioned, dependant, afraid to be alone

He needs that feeling that he can't create all on his own

He despises the fact she has a life outside of 'them'

It drives him crazy to think she's not insanely consumed with him

Give her the guilt trip, and maybe she'll quit livin'

To stay behind his prison walls and loose all individualism

Well, this is happiness, masochistic torture,

Plagued by the decadent, craved for affection

The needle digs deep to push contentment through his blood stream

It drowned out - hollow, the pothole of a junkie

If he could only hear her sing, he wouldn't wanna break her wings

But emptiness has such a warm subtle sting

She makes up for what he lacks - trapped

He can't imagine life without someone like that.

We've rediscovered the long lost art of dyin'

Only the lonely resent angels for flyin'

Twisted, living off each other's sickness, like parasites

This is paradise

We've rediscovered the long lost art of dyin'

Only the lonely resent angels for flyin'

Addicted, afraid to take control of my own life

This is paradise

What a beautiful world, emotionally destroyed

Hurt became clearer when girl met boy

Between several breakups and plenty relapses

Routine bread comfort led to serious attachment

Now every once in awhile, she forgets to breathe

Terrified of loosin' em, paradise is misery

Too much faith in the life-saving knight in shining armor

Now what knight's noticin' - the scars she can't hide any longer

But they were her story way before he was

It's gross hope to think that he would heal such deep cuts

At first it felt so right, but after one too many fights

He turned out that hallway light, and all the wonder turned to spite

So they sleep in the same bed, with guns to each other's heads

Dead to romance, boiling the blood that painted roses red

Suffering from post-honeymoon disease, leeched to his whole existence

She'll die if he decides to leave

Addicted to the way she feels when they spend time together

Detouring the now, in a childish attempt to find forever

Despite the fact they hold each other heart-to-heart

You can't be that close to somebody, without being so far apart

We've rediscovered the long lost art of dyin'

Only the lonely resent angels for flyin'

Twisted, living off each other's sickness, like parasites

This is paradise

We've rediscovered the long lost art of dyin'

Only the lonely resent angels for flyin'

Addicted, afraid to take control of my own life

This is paradise

Silence is the most obscure sound I've ever heard

Those lonely, giant spaces in-between your every word

And maybe I'm totally crazy for holdin' on

But, just cause I'm insane don't mean that I'm wrong

Now that you're gone I can't sleep at night, I barely even function right

My memory's on overdrive, to hungry and too cold to cry

Miss the companionship I once took for granted

The way you helped me manage, the partnership that vanished

But I don't expect you to stay chained by the ankle

There's so much world to see, so, fly free ~ my angel

I'm dying without you, but it's teaching me to live

Heaven ain't something someone else can give - it's all inside of me

We've rediscovered the long lost art of dyin'

Only the lonely resent angels for flyin'

Twisted, living off each other's sickness, like parasites

This is paradise

We've rediscovered the long lost art of dyin'

Only the lonely resent angels for flyin'

Addicted, afraid to take control of my own life

This is paradise

There's so much world to see, what's stoppin' me from flyin' free?

There's so much world to see, what's stoppin' you from flyin' free?

There's so much world to see, what's stoppin' me from flyin' free?

There's so much world to see, what's stoppin' you from flyin' free?
