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
