Paradise

Oh baby
Do we ever get free
Wasted all of my twenties just making some money
Sleeping on pins and needles
Nightmaring about all my dead heroes
Trying to hold in this freight train that's coming rolling in

Cause all my life
Never saved a dime
All my life
Flashes before my eyes
What does that mean
I'm so afraid it doesn't mean a god damn thing
All my life

Oh baby
What's it like being so cool
LA baby
Got a record deal at fifteen and dropped out of school
Now you sing of love like your heart's been broken and
All of these words you have spoken
I promise ya someday you'll finally know what it all means

Cause all my life
Youth has been glamorized
All my life
Paying tribute to pretty smiles
What do you mean
It doesn't do well to dwell on dreams
All my life

You say you know but you could never know
My head runs hotter than any hell
You say you know but you could never know
So many things that I have never shown

All my life
Thinking about all the things I haven't said
All my life
A grocery list of regrets
How could it be
A soul less deserving than me
All my life
Staring down the barrel
Of paradise
