Fool's Paradise 歌詞

She looks in the mirror A stranger stares back at her The broken mask in the floor with the Face she wore for so many years To hide fears inside To hide her true desires On screen, on stage, in life Living to shine in strangers’ eyes Fool’s paradise Fool’s paradise Small talks in fancy dinners Diamonds and lies Showing off her expensive trinkets What a waste of time! Sliding in a spiral of decay All beauty fades and dies Leaving just a shadow of what She thought was paradise A simpler life in yellowed pictures Where’s that soulful child? A choked cry of desperation Echoes in the empty mansion Chasing fame and power Waiting for the time She’d be satisfied The day never came and it’s too late now Fool’s paradise Fool’s paradise
