Lyrics
Paradise (What About Us?)
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.
There's no sense, the fire burns
When wisdom fails, it changes all
The wheel embodies all that keeps on turning
Blood red skies, I feel so cold
No innocence, we play our roll
The wheel embodies all
Where are we going?
All in all
You expect the wise to be wiser
Fallen from grace and
All and all I guess we should have known better
'Cause
What about us?
Isn't it enough?
No, we're not in paradise
This is who we are
This is what we've got
No, it's not our paradise
But it's all we want
And it's all that we're fighting for
Though it's not paradise
You and us, or I and them
There comes a time to take a stand
The wheel is watching all it keeps on burning
The venom works, it's like a curse
A trojan horse, when will we learn?
The wheel embodies all that keeps returning
All in all
You expect the wise to be wiser
Fallen from grace and
All and all I guess we should have known better
'Cause
What about us?
Isn't it enough?
No, we're not in paradise
This is who we are
This is what we've got
No, it's not our paradise
But it's all we want
And it's all that we're fighting for
Though it's not paradise
What about us?
Isn't it enough?
No, we're not in paradise
This is who we are
This is what we've got
No, it's not our paradise
But it's all we want
And it's all that we're fighting for
What about us?
Isn't it enough?
No, we're not in paradise
This is who we are
This is what we've got
No, it's not our paradise
But it's all we want
And it's all that we're fighting for
But it's not paradise
What about us?
What about us?
What about us?
Isn't it enough?
What about us?
What about us?
What about us?
Isn't it enough?
What about us?
What about us?
What about us?
Isn't it enough?
What about us?
What about us?
What about us?
Isn't it enough?
