lyrics

Our home we can't deny
Has shed her tear for sin
Eternal days that call your name
Are lost into the wind

It's getting hard to breathe
And harder to think
Of where we could be by now

But we should be dead
This time around
We should be dead this time around

Oh no, oh yeah
Welcome to Paradise
Here's your Paradise

Another trip around the sun
Watch the forest recede
Displacing the many souls
That were here before you and me

It's getting hard to breathe
And harder to wonder
Where we could be by now

But we should be dead
This time around
We should be dead this time around

Oh no, oh yeah
Welcome to Paradise
Here's your Paradise

Smoke has filled the toxic air
For 91 long days
All I need is some reprieve
From our reckless ways

Can't you see all the loss
Is heedless and it's cold
There's a place down below
For your very soul

It's getting hard to breathe
And harder to think
Of where we could be by now

But we should be dead
This time around
We should be dead this time around

Oh no, oh yeah
Welcome to Paradise
Here's your Paradise

This is your Paradise
This is your Paradise, oh yeah
Oh no, welcome to Paradise
Here's your Paradise
