Lyrics
A Fool's Paradise
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.
What's become of the world - the colors
Unfurl revealing a blackened haze
Conditioned to fear the voice that we
Hear - calling an end of days
Millions of souls under control
Like pawns to a king, led by a string, to
The final hour
Oh - empire of the sea, lords of
Technology that fell into the void
Oh, shall it be as it was before - a
Tragedy on every shore?
Is this the end of all we know
Innocence lost so long ago
Woven in dreams - the darkest of
Schemes now takes hold of our destiny
Decades of greed, plague, famine and
War - we can't go on like this anymore
Living like fools - chaos will rule this
Eternal paradise
Death by design, altering birth - trends
Of the modern age
The wisdom of life erased from the
Earth - in a reckless rampage
Oh - empire of the sea, lords of
Technology that fell into the void
Oh shall it be as it was before - a
Tragedy on every shore?
Is this the end of all we know
Innocence lost so long ago
Woven in dreams - the darkest of
Schemes now takes hold of our destiny
Decades of greed, plague, famine and
War - we can't go on like this anymore
Living like fools - chaos will rule this
Eternal paradise
Dies irae, dies illa, solvet saeclum in
Favilla
Decades of greed, plague, famine and
War - we can't go on like this anymore
Living like fools - chaos will rule this
Eternal paradise
Is this the end of all we know
Innocence lost so long ago
Woven in dreams - the darkest of
Schemes now takes hold of our destiny
Decades of greed, plague, famine and
War - we can't go on like this anymore
Lost in the night, fading from sight is
This the final setting sun?
