Autumn In Paradise - Primal Scream

There’s a fog outside my window

There’s a beggar at my door

There’s a madman screaming on the street

But I don’t know what for

There’s a hungry, lonesome drifter

He don’t fit anywhere

There’s a train leaving the station

He can’t afford the fare

Autumn in paradise

Invisible all your life

Autumn in paradise

Who can afford the price?

There’s a white carnation growing

In a garden overgrown

There’s a factory that’s empty

No one works there anymore

Down the street of broken families

Dreams are in the trash

A father begs forgiveness

But it’s much too late for that

Autumn in paradise

Invisible all your life

Autumn in paradise

Who can afford the price?

If you ask me what I’m thinking

I won’t tell you how I feel

I’m moving like a target

I’ve got nothing left to steal

There was something when you came here

There’ll be nothing when you leave

A soul lacks all direction

When there’s nothing to believe

Autumn in paradise

Invisible all your life

Autumn in paradise

Who can afford the price?
