Reckless Paradise
Billy Talent
[Intro] C’mon! [Verse 1] Stuck in a crisis Without a conscience Trapped in a place we don’t belong There’s no more heroes Left to believe in They’ve pushed our backs against the wall [Bridge] I know that something has to change We got lost along the way Your thoughts and prayers can’t fix the pain ’Cause we’re falling down again [Pre-Verse] x2 [Verse 2] Crooks and deceivers Misled believers A world where decency is gone Chaotic flashes Of huddled masses Stare down the barrel of the gun [Bridge] I know that something has to change We got lost along the way Your thoughts and prayers can’t fix the pain ’Cause we’re falling down again [Chorus] Live in a reckless paradise The house is burning trapped inside A reckless paradise The wheels are turning truth to lies In reckless paradise Could cut the tension with a knife In reckless paradise It’s up to us to read between the lines [Post-Chorus] Your thoughts and prayers can’t fix the pain ’Cause we’re falling down again [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] Reckless paradise The house is burning trapped inside A reckless paradise The wheels are turning truth to lies In reckless paradise Could cut the tension with a knife In reckless paradise It’s up to us to read between the lines [Post-Chorus] Your thoughts and prayers can’t fix the pain ’Cause we’re falling down again [Outro] Hey!
