Within Temptation "Paradise (What About Us?)" lyrics

Paradise (What About Us?)

There's no sense, the fire burnsWhen wisdom fails, it changes allThe wheel embodies all that keeps on turning

Blood red skies, I feel so coldNo innocence, we play our roleThe wheel embodies all where are we going

All in all you'd expect the wise to be wiserFallen from grace

All in all I guessWe should have known better, 'cause...

What about usIsn't it enoughNo we're not in paradise

This is who we areThis is what we've gotNo it's not our paradise

But it's all we wantAnd it's all that we're fighting forThough it's not paradise

You and us, or I and themThere come's a time to take a standThe wheel is watching all, it keeps on burning

The venom works, it's like a curseA trojan horse, when will we learnThe wheel embodies all, that keeps returning

All in all you'd expect the wise to be wiserFallen from grace

All in all I guessWe should have known better, 'cause...

What about usIsn't it enoughNo we're not in paradise

This is who we areThis is what we gotNo it's not our paradise

But it's all we wantAnd it's all that we're fighting forThough it's not paradise
