Paradise 02:24
Lately, quite against my will, I I find myself smiling again, and I don't know why - nothing seems to have changed. I ponder on this mystery, 'til finally it occurs to me: I've let go of the pain that I'd been locking away. Such a thrill when you start to notice, sweeter still when a smile creeps to your face. It may just be a fantasy, but it seems real to me. And even you, with your tongue of silver, even kings with their crowns and golden rings, will waste their lives in search of lies: the keys to open up the gates of paradise. If you gave me half a chance, I wouldn't think twice. I know, it's out of my hands - "Paradise."
