Dear mother,
Can you hear me whining?
It's been three whole weeks
Since that I have left your home
This sudden fear has left me trembling
Cause now it seems that I am out here on my own
And I'm feeling so alone
Pay attention to the cracked streets
And the broken homes
Some call it the slums
Some call it nice
I want to take you through
a wasteland I like to call my home
Welcome To Paradise
A gunshot rings out at the station
Another urchin snaps and left dead on his own
It makes me wonder why I'm still here
For some strange reason it's now
Feeling like my home
And I'm never gonna go
Pay attention to the cracked streets
And the broken homes
Some call it slums
Some call it nice
I want to take you through
a wasteland I like to call
my home
Welcome To Paradise
Dear mother,
Can you hear me laughing
It's been six whole months
Since that I have left your home
It makes me wonder why I'm still here
For some strange reason it's now
Feeling like my home
And I'm never gonna go
Pay attention to the cracked streets
And the broken homes
Some call it the slums
Some call it nice
I want to take you through
a wasteland I like to call my home
Welcome To Paradise

Staring at the mirror
I couldn't find a reason why
I couldn't be near her
'Cause you are the one that started
To make me feel this way
And every night I'm thinking
About the words you'd say
Pictures going through my mind
When we're together
All these long and sleepless nights
Will I ever get better
'Cause you are the one that started
To make me feel this way
And every night I'm thinking
About the words you'd say
'Cause you are THE ONE THAT I WANT
Now you know how I feel
This love is forever
You make my life seem so unreal
Will I ever get better? ...
'Cause you are the one that started
To make me feel this way
And every night I'm thinking
About the words you'd say
'Cause you are THE ONE THAT I WANT
THAT'S LOUDER THAN BOMBS
AND ETERNITY
THE ERA OF STATIC AND CONTRABAND
THAT'S LEADING US TO THE PROMISED LAND
TELL US A STORY THAT'S BY CANDLELIGHT
WAGING A WAR AND LOSING THE FIGHT
THEY'RE PLAYING THE SONG OF THE CENTURY
OF PANIC AND OPROMISE AND PROSPERTY
TELL ME A STORY INTO THAT GOOD NIGHT
SING US A SONG FOR ME
