Paradise lost

It's gone forever

And at what cost

Did we destroy it together?

This great Eden

Is no more

The Elysium

We worshiped

We lost it all

It apparently wasn't worth it

And it burnt to the floor

It was better to build a world of concrete

Then to feel the earth on your feet

To know that the ground beneath us is stable

And not having to hear about earth in a fable

So don't think I'm being unreasonable

When I say I want to destroy it all

It's only because I want to make sure

That the land I once saw

Wasn't a dream

And that there's a way back into the sky

Because we drunk up the sea

And the ground is empty

So let us into Eden again

So we can ruin that too

And be as thankless as we were here

We remain untrue

And wonder why you forsake us

And don't consider us dear

Did we ruin your trust

With our corruption and lust?

Our lies fill the skies

Which is why it gets darker and dies

So open your gates

And we'll call it our new world

Fill it with temptation and snakes

Which we openly embrace

Because after all

We are nothing but demons

We encouraged the war

That destroyed all our seasons

We made the seven sins come true

And think why you didn't let us in to

Paradise

But oh well

Better to rein in hell

Then to serve in heaven
