The paradise we seek lies inside


Who's to blame, who will lose
Now the dice have been rolled
We must find the guilty ones
Instead of condemning what has been done


Who shall we praise now
When all our gods are gone
Living is not just to live
In a conrete or cardboard box
Think in a carbonized world
Where all has been done before
The thought of a perfect world
On the pile of broken dreams


To see the colors that rest within your mind
The paradise we seek lies behind


Who's to blame, who will lose
Now the dice have been rolled
We must find the guilty ones
Instead of condemning what has been done


From the smoking cities we shall rise
And on the ashes we will build
Praying for that one day
The sun will rise again...
