LIFE (Paradise Denied)

I've been hearing whispers that will chill you to the bone Forced into the darkness that I now call my home The only light I ever had was the bridges that I burned Now I'm walking back through fire with the scars that I have earned How did I end up being such a broken man? I thought I had it figured out, I had a plan And now I lost it all, but I don't know where I am I hope for the end I've been hiding for so long This is life, misery strife Looking for the answers, running outta time Life (life), misery strife 'Cause this is life (life), misery strife Looking for the answers, running outta time Life (life), misery strife I've been waiting on the echoes to answer me Staring at the dark to face these voices that keep screaming No reality until you return to me, oh! Paradise denied Crushed by the reverie Nowhere left to hide I've been waiting on the echoes to answer me Staring at the dark to face these voices that keep screaming No reality 'til you return to me, why won't you answer me? Staring at the dark to face these voices that keep screaming No reality until you return to me Until you return to me Until you return to me Until you return to me I can't fight these chemicals (all these questions unable to answer) The scars untraceable (as the fear grows, as the fears grows) As I break free from this mould (from this cell I imprison myself in) This lifelong overdose (the price that we pay) 'Cause this is life (life), misery strife This is life (life), yeah This is life (life), misery strife Looking for the answers, running out of time Life (life), misery strife 'Cause this is life (life), misery strife Looking for the answers, running outta time Life (life), misery strife We're running outta time
