Tears in Paradise

Oh, they'll never catch me cry

A second time

There's no tears in paradise

And lately, I

I think my whole life's just a state of mind

I recognize

I'm too scared to wait in line

So now I fly

I've seen the lows, but I've always been a riser

I'm the type to run away from

Nine-to-fives and the reason why

Is I got friends that

Hate their jobs they're just wasting on

While they say they're not slowly dying

Thinking when will it be my turn

To make happy a habit

'Cause man, it would be nicer

If I could strike a balance

I sleepwalk day and night and wonder why

It feels better when you're dreaming

No, you'll never shed a tear in paradise

Wake up and fight your demons

You had your doors wide open

No surprise you're terrified

A few more years we're 25

So will I find

That peace that old guys carry

In the silence by the fire?

So find a chair and sit beside

They'll tell you why

You need to go take a ride on your horizon

You got time

To try and fail and make it right

But say goodbye

To asking what you're waiting on while you

Pray to God, got the

Same response, and you don't like it

Can't be so afraid to run 'cause what

Gave you comfort is the

Grave you're under, aren't you tired?

Thinking when will it be my turn

To make happy a habit

'Cause man, it would be nicer

If I could strike a balance

I sleepwalk day and night and wonder why

It feels better when you're dreaming

No, you'll never shed a tear in paradise

Wake up and fight your demons

Wake up and fight your demons

So, when will it be my turn

To make happy a habit?

'Cause man it would be nicer

If I could strike a balance

I sleepwalk day and night and wonder why

It feels better when you're dreaming

No, you'll never shed a tear in paradise

Oh, they'll never catch me cry

A second time

There's no tears in paradise

And lately, I

I think my whole life's just a state of mind

I recognize

I'm too scared to wait in line

So now I fly
