Paradise Now

Lyrics

[Verse 1] How many times does it take To realize the lightning will strike you How many times will you fake For you to just get into Sometimes leaving is the best thing When all you know are grudges This time think twice before you swing Did you ever understand what love is? [Chorus] It's been a long time Why don't you open the blinds? See something other than thyme I felt so lost, I Though I'm near paradise now [Verse 2] It shouldn't have took you something just to get up Pieces fall of what it was made of Coming down in with the rain A long lasting hoax of pain [Chorus] It's been a long time Why don't you open the blinds? See something other than thyme I felt so lost, I Though I'm near paradise now [Verse 3] You dug holes in my ground You were an exasperating sound There are things better unsaid But I'll speak so everyone can see the red In you was nothing but a fraud Make it seem like your so soft You live in a museum of oath Just like how I kept you like one Two clowns back and fourth "I talked to you for fun" Lies shine brighter than the sun It would be so sad if I told your centerpiece But who? cause their all side pieces It be better if we left each other alone [Chorus] It's been a long time Why don't you open the blinds? See something other than thyme I felt so lost, I Though I'm near paradise now
