"Paradise" lyrics

Paradise

(With Tarja)

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 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
That 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 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?
