Gimme just one time
c moment here by your side
Fragile is the mind
In step with the party line
You got so many things that you could do
But this is what you're choosing
cnd we're losing you

cnd everywhere you go
Shadows line up in space
The writing's on the wall,
Just got ten feet taller, but what do you got to say
It all burns down around us now
Then we're lost and can't be found
cnother day in paradise

The worst is over
That noise is ringing in your ears
cnd when we're sober
We'll find the laughter in those tears
But I never thought our simple lives would come to this
cnd I'll never find it again
cgain

We used to call it home
Where nothing would ever change
You wrote it down in chrome
cnd everything's been arranged
There were so many things that you could do
But now the water's getting hotter by the day

cn effigy obscene
c tower made in his place
In back of limousines
Yea we'd drive all over, crashing the barricades
They burned it down under us now
ct what cost did you allow
The razing of a paradise

The worst is over
That noise is ringing in your ears
cnd when we're sober
We'll find the laughter in those tears
But I never thought our simple lives would end like this
cnd I'll never find it again
