Paradise Is

I almost lost myself angry nights Thought I'd give it all the way Senseless things to do Then we see light of day Thought I'd give it all the way Paradise is the hand in the store Promise at a price to educate more Paradise is the hand in the store Slapped at a price will educate more All the people in the rooms I'd known so well Smiling faces The truth would never tell I looked around it wasn't planned I looked around I will expand A mask so thin The world I don't believe would waste its time A mask so thin Another world would never waste its time A mask so thin so fine The boys would never waste their time conceiving But they do and oh so well Too many people Stood in a room That I'd known so well Chewing the drinks drinking the room Dancing the room tossing and turning Finding themselves once turned by emotions Never oneself Strange how we grow Smile keeps the secrets in Strange how we wear the grin Smile keeps the secrets in Strange how we wear the grin
