Paradise [What About Us?] lyrics

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 role

The wheel embodies all where are we going

All in all you'd expect the wise to be wiser

Fallen from grace

All in 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 come's 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'd expect the wise to be wiser

Fallen from grace

All in 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 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
