4. Paradise (What About Us?) (5:22)
There’s no sense; the fire burns
When wisdom fails, it changes all
The wheel embodies all that keeps on turning
Blood red skies, I feel so cold
No innocence, we play our role
The wheel embodies all where are we going
Pre-refrain:
All in all you’d expect the wise to be wiser
Fallen from grace, all and all I guess
We should have known better, ‘cause…
Refrain:
What about us, isn’t it enough?
No, we’re not in paradise
This is who we are; this is what we got
No, it’s not our paradise
But it’s all we want
And it’s all that we’re fighting for
Though it’s not paradise
You and us, or I and them
There comes a time to take a stand
The wheel is watching all; it keeps on burning
The venom works, it’s like a curse
A Trojan horse, when will we learn?
The wheel embodies all; that keeps returning
Pre-refrain
Refrain
When wisdom fails, it changes all
The wheel embodies all that keeps on turning
Blood red skies, I feel so cold
No innocence, we play our role
The wheel embodies all where are we going
Pre-refrain:
All in all you’d expect the wise to be wiser
Fallen from grace, all and all I guess
We should have known better, ‘cause…
Refrain:
What about us, isn’t it enough?
No, we’re not in paradise
This is who we are; this is what we got
No, it’s not our paradise
But it’s all we want
And it’s all that we’re fighting for
Though it’s not paradise
You and us, or I and them
There comes a time to take a stand
The wheel is watching all; it keeps on burning
The venom works, it’s like a curse
A Trojan horse, when will we learn?
The wheel embodies all; that keeps returning
