Paradise

Nowhere to be found Silence keeps me down There's tension in the air, what changed? You say you're full of doubt Am I losing control? (Tyrant!) Compulsively mulling over the Greater implications of subtlety You've gotta keep it together now I want to believe you Welcome to paradise Where life meets purpose, everything's so nice Gather and multiply, it's cool, cool Live here in paradise We kick back, throw back, it's great to be alive 'Cause girl, you're so fine I've murdered voices in my head (yes, you did) That say "swallow before you chew" (you got to chew) I've adopted the mantra I just want to entertain Swingin' in my sleep I'm restless in the deep A demon rises with the truth, hey! What keeps me sane is you understand (sabotage!) Sheep become people once you father them Should we bother them? I don't see it in you Welcome to paradise Where life meets purpose, everything's so nice Gather and multiply, it's cool, cool Live here in paradise We kick back, throw back, it's great to be alive 'Cause girl, you're so fine All we see is irony I want everyone to put their hands together And praise this thing we call a life! Whoo! Huh! (La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la) Everybody's screamin' "It ain't so bad!" But beneath the static screams the truth That you're desperate, weak and compulsively sink Into anything to rule out delusion Welcome to paradise Where life meets purpose, everything's so nice Gather and multiply, it's cool, cool Live here in paradise We kick back, throw back, it's great to be alive 'Cause girl, you're so fine (La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la) (La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
