Paradiso - The Chameleons (变色龙乐队)
I recall
A closing door
And I remember
Seeing shadows 'cross a stained glass sky
Long before
The strangers came down
To steal our clothing
And our consciences and long before
Eyes were empty
Hearts were cold
We'll watch the rattlesnakes slide
Slowly swerve into view
To tease and tantalise
To sucker your senses and spit out the pieces
Magazine girl
She is living in a different world
Or is it a he
Pull back the curtain my son
I look around the colour has gone
And slowly darkness descends upon me
Paradiso
I know you lied
That much is clear
Well the serpent sings his song
To so many sleeping
Staring eyes
Like sheep they sing along
And clap in time to a heart that's beating
Crazy child she is wicked
Oh she is wild
And so enticing
Pull back the curtain today
I look around the colour is grey
Grey as this ghost town that towers above me
Paradiso
I know you lied
That much is clear
To me
I see the poet and the fool
Walking hand in hand to school
I recall a lonely outcast I remember
Laughing children it was long before
Their eyes were empty
Hearts were cold
So dance this final dance with me
I'll wrap your sting round my spine
Will poison wash away the fear
Wipe this world from my mind hey
Look up
What can you do
I looked around the colour was blue
Wise up it's in your head
I looked around me and the colour is red
Red as the words that I read on the wall
Paradiso
Kingdoms rise so must they fall
And only ashes is remain in the end
Paradiso
I know you lied lies without end
I'll see it again
And again and again
I'll see it again and again and again
Paradiso
Paradiso
