Prisoners of Paradise

Well, I had superheroes, silver patron saints

I've seen the movie, I even made that face

I've been building it up and tearing it down

I'm doing it all my life

Fanning the flames and breaking the chains

We're prisoners of paradise

Guitar redemption from the last picture show

A karma connection everywhere I go

I keep building it up and tearing it down

I'm doing it all my life

Kids on the run and money for guns

They're prisoners of paradise

You don't wanna be a lonely boy

And you can't make it on your own

You can't make it on your own, oh no

And it's been hibernation, it begins like it ends

She looked good on paper, at least I got my friends

And tonight will be so long

Tonight you'll be alone

I keep building it up and tearing it down

I'm doing it all my life

Fanning the flames and breaking the chains

We're prisoners of paradise

I keep building it up and tearing it down

I'm doing it all my life

Money for guns and kids on the run

They're prisoners of paradise

Prisoners of paradise

Prisoners of paradise
