Paradise (What about us?)
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.
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
What about us? Isn't it enough,
No we're not in Paradise.
This is who we are, this is what we got
No, this is not our Paradise.
But it's all we want, and 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.
La canción 'Paradise (What about us?)' de Within Temptation nos sumerge en un paisaje en el que la sabiduría falla y el fuego arde sin sentido. Con cielos rojos de sangre y un frío que penetra el alma, nos enfrentamos a la paradójica realidad de un mundo en el que el juego de roles carece de inocencia.... Significado de la letra
