GATES OF PARADISE - While She Sleeps

At the gates of paradise

Waiting for our names to call from above

There’s an angel inside of us

If you turn a blind eye and trust that

I’ll be better this time around

You can do anything you wanna fucking do

The rules were made to be disputed by the truth

Did no one tell you to let go of the reigns?

Did no one tell you they manipulate?

Send out the press, tell 'em have it for nothing

Feast like a savage would on its casualty

(Inform the masses that)

This is what you get when you don’t break the habit

We breed the selfish

Abandon what good and bad really meant

At the gates of paradise

Waiting for our names to call from above

There’s an angel inside of us

If you turn a blind eye and trust that

I’ll be better this time around

You can do anything you wanna fucking do

The rules were made to be disputed by the truth

Did no one tell you to let go of the reigns?

Did no one tell you they manipulate?

Safe to say we’ll never know

How it would’ve been if it was to go

Are we better off on our own?

At the gates of paradise

Waiting for our names to call from above

There’s an angel inside of us

If you turn a blind eye and trust that

I’ll be better this time around

Can you feel it caressing around your every nerve?

It’s too late for resolve, we’re not long for this world

We’re digging deeper like a parasite

It’s time to wake up while we’re still alive

You’re only listening 'cos no one’s got anything better to say

We’re still singing, «fuck you, I won’t do what you tell me»

Oh, yeah

Oh, yeah

Hate to say we’re biding our time

Are you past the point of no return?

Do your symptoms leave you satisfied?

Keep your demons buried deep inside

We’ve got everyone to follow

But there’s no one left to walk with

The shallow path of honesty

Residing in our promise

And this will haunt us always

Waking from the truth we lie in mourning

Safe to say we’ll never know

How it would’ve been if it was to go the other way

I’d like to say we’re better off on our own

Safe to say we’ll never know

How it would’ve been if it was to go the other way

I’d like to say we’re better off on our own

Safe to say we’ll never know

How it would’ve been if it was to go the other way

I’d like to say we’re better off on our own

Safe to say we’ll never know

How it would’ve been if it was to go the other way

I’d like to say we’re better off on our own
