Paradise - Vanessa Carlton

Once upon a year gone by
She saw herself give in
Every time she closed her eyes
She saw what could have been
But nothing hurts
And nothing bleeds
When covers tucked in tight
Finally when the bottom drops
She forgets to fight
To fight

And it's
One more day in paradise
One more day in paradise

As darkness quickly steals the light that shines within her eyes
She slowly swallows all her fears
And soothes her mind with lies
Well all she wants and
All she needs are
Reasons to survive
A day in which the sun will take her artificial light
Her light

And one more day in paradise
One more day in paradise
It's one more day in paradise
One last chance to feel alright
Alright

Don't pretend to hold it in
Just let it out
Don't pretend to hold it in just push it out
Don't you try to hold it in
Just let it out
Don't you try to hold it in

One more day in paradise
One more day in paradise
It's one more day in paradise
One last chance to feel alright

One upon a year gone by
She saw herself give in
Every time she closed her eyes
She saw what could have been



A lot of memories with this song. Mainly bad ones. But as weird and psycho as this may sound, it's kind of comforting from time to time.
