Paradise (What About Us?)

by Within Temptation

on Hydra (2014)

There's no sense, the fire burns
When wisdom fails it changes all
The wheel embodies all that keeps on turnin'
Blood red skies, I feel so cold
No innocence, we play our role
The wheel embodies all, where are we goin'?

All in all you'd expect the wise to be wiser
Fallen from grace and
All and all I guess we should have known better, 'cause

What about us? Isn't it enough?
No, we're not in paradise
This is who we are, this is what we've got
No, it's not our paradise
But it's all we want and it's all that we're fightin' for
Though it's not paradise

You and us, or I and them
There comes a time to take a stand
The wheel is watchin' all that keeps on burnin'
The venom works, it's like a curse
A Trojan horse, when will we learn?
The wheel embodies all, that keeps returnin'

All in all you'd expect the wise to be wiser
Fallen from grace and
All and all I guess we should have known better, 'cause

What about us? Isn't it enough?
No, we're not in paradise
This is who we are, this is what we've got
No, it's not our paradise
But it's all we want and it's all that we're fightin' for
Though it's not paradise

What about us? Isn't it enough?
No, we're not in paradise
This is who we are, this is what we've got
No, it's not our paradise
But it's all we want and it's all that we're fightin' for

What about us? Isn't it enough?
No, we're not in paradise
This is who we are, this is what we've got
No, it's not our paradise
But it's all we want and it's all that we're fightin' for
But it's not paradise

What about us? What about us?
What about us? Isn't it enough?
What about us? What about us?
What about us? Isn't it enough?
What about us? What about us?
What about us? Isn't it enough?
What about us? What about us?
What about us? Isn't it enough?
