I have a story here to tell
About a place I haven't seen
A thousand light years from this hell
The air I'm breathing in a dream
I took a good look at my life
I think it's k**ing me
So I'm on the road to Paradise
As far as I can see
There is a quiet and a still
It's nothing like you've ever seen
The way the light's cast on the hill
The light I'm seeing in a dream
No, I'm not waiting till I die
That's not the silence that I seek
I'm on the road to Paradise
And Paradise has heard me speak
[ bridge ]
You saw fire in my eyes
Today it burned a hole through me
So I'm on the road to Paradise
I think that fire's k**ing me
I'm on the road to Paradise
I smell the air, it's very sweet
And when the birds lift off the rocks
My heart keeps time with every beat
[ bridge ]
I have a story here to tell
About a place I haven't seen
A thousand light years from this hell
The air I'm breathing in a dream
