Paradise Broken

 


Rid her of me for revenge.
Take her away.
The fact has now dawned,
destiny, twist-o-fate.

Things aren’t as they used to be.
Where did you go?

A perfect escape
is just a cage
I can’t erase.

Can’t erase the thought
Can’t erase my word.
A perfect escape 
is just like a cage.

Can’t erase the thought
Can’t erase my word.
A perfect escape 
is just like a cage.

Rid her of me for revenge.
Take her away.
The fact has now dawned,
destiny, twist-o-fate.


Hideaway, destiny, all the sin
that’s been gathered.


How does a king gets his way with such a thin sail.
Such a thin sail.

Rid her of me for revenge.
Take her away.
The fact has now dawned,
destiny, twist-o-fate.

Things aren’t as they used to be.
 Where did you go?

A perfect escape
is just a cage
I can’t erase.

Can’t erase the thought
Can’t erase my word.
A perfect escape 
is just like a cage.

Can’t erase the thought
Can’t erase my word.
A perfect escape 
is just like a cage.


Hideaway, destiny, all the sin
that’s been gathered.


You’re wondering how
I’ve been on both sides

I’ve got to hide away, hide away
