She used to laugh with anyone and everyone surrounded her,

She had one of those smiles that would reach her eyes and just go one and on, on and on.

But in broad daylight someone stole her smile.

And she sings

I took a chance in fools paradise and now I've paid the price,

Learn from me, take my advice I've looked death in the eyes.

Love is my vice.

They thought she had it all, and then some, more than enough to leave their small town behind.

But as the cracks start to form and her crown starts to fall, she cried out for help only to find.

There was no one there to save her from her own damn mind.

Alone she sings

I took a chance in fools paradise and now I've paid the price,

Learn from me, take my advice I've looked death in the eyes.

Love is my vice.

Alone she stands, still with a smile on her face,

But her fingers crossed behind her back.

All the while she sings

I took a chance in fools paradise and now I've paid the price,

Learn from me, take my advice cause I've looked death in the eyes.

Causes love is my vice.

I had one of those smiles that would reach my eyes and now feels out of place.
