Plastic Paradise

I am just a boy
Purity must be destroyed
You have got a gift
Keep it away from the dirt and spit
I used to talk a lot
Until that night in the parking lot
Stable bodies with lost souls
But if you don't grow up, son
You'll pay the toll

Don't forget
You could mean something to yourself
Lying on the couch
As your friends give you dirty looks
You studied the manuals and read the books

Did you ever think
Before you hit the ceiling by your kitchen sink
Did you think it was real
The more you see the less you feel
Time of your life
Your own plastic paradise
Static mind
As the crowd slowly leaves you behind

Don't forget
You could mean something to yourself
Lying on the ground
As you hide behind the smoke screen
Not knowing, not believing everybody can see

Everyone can see
You're not who you try to be
Everybody knows
You live in the shadows
If you open up your mind
There's a place that you will find
We're all gonna bleed
So baby bleed with me
