Artificial Paradise lyrics

Many loves in a lifetime,

They seem to go astray

Many people come and go,

They never seem to stay

Sometimes I kid myself,

Then I realise

I'm just living in an artificial paradise

A hundred times,

My hopes and dreams are blown into the air

A thousand times,

It always seems no one is really there

Then I know I'm fooling myself,

I'm not so wise

I'm just living in an artificial paradise

Plastic state of mind,

Superficial clothes

Living in a vacuum, close to zero

Sometimes I kid myself,

Then I realise

I'm just living in an artificial paradise
