Lyrics
Verse 1
Danger in paradise
Mesmerized by the beast
Souls are sacrificed
For the cannibal’s feast
There’s a body on ice
Floats naked among dead leaves
Withering paradise
Nothing left but weeds
Chorus
There’s something more to this
Something behind the show
An eternal paradise
Where memories of love unfold
Like flowers or the bliss
Of morning’s golden glow
Like spirits in the mist
They’re gone before you know
Verse 2
Danger in paradise
Heads full of false beliefs
As the predator’s prey dies
Mushroom clouds in the east
Waterfalls in polluted heights
Strange fruit hangs in the trees
Wilting paradise
Nothing lasts for keeps
Chorus
There’s something more to this
Something behind the show
An eternal paradise
Where memories of love unfold
Like flowers or the bliss
Of morning’s golden glow
Like spirits in the mist
They’re gone before you know
Bridge
The light flickers
A familiar scent
You feel a presence
An invisible touch
Chorus
There’s something more to this
Something behind the show
An eternal paradise
Where memories of love unfold
Like flowers or the bliss
Of morning’s golden glow
Like spirits in the mist
They’re gone before you know
