"Paradise Is Burning" lyrics

"Paradise Is Burning"

Was it all for nothing?
All the hurt we've carried all these years
Will we ever stop running
From the hands on the saints
Of all of our fears?
The memories we smothered
With oceans of tears
Will we ever not see
The monster in the mirror?
The same one we've fallen in love with

The world won't stop turning
So we just find ways to pass the time
Paradise is burning
And we can't stop it
No matter how hard we try
The ashes of our souls will swallow the sky
So, run for your life
But they know where we hide
People like you and I
Will struggle for the rest
Of our lives
