Far from Fortune - Paradise

A dot of green within the blue
I think I finally found you
Not a cloud in the sky
I've stumbled on to paradise
I'll have to wait a while
To step on to the Isle

But when I reach dry ground
Your rain is pouring down on me

I think I've seen this place before
I feel I've walked along these shores
And mixed deep within the green
A bright red is warning me
I see it on the street and in the hands of the people I meet

And when it was foretold
My blood ran colder than the sea

The other side of paradise
Where the angels are played by the devil at night
You can feel it tugging on your mind
And the waves turn red in the moonlight

And if you stand up in a tower
You'll hear the gunshots every hour
Every stop street, every store
Men are dying on the floor
And they all pray, for it to stop so they can turn away
But it's kill or be killed
So rather him than it be me

The other side of paradise
Where the angels are played by the devil at night
You can feel it tugging on your mind
And the waves turn red in the moonlight

You can fight it all you want
But the truth is out, and it hurts your heart
Something there that you can't deny
Every garden has its snakes inside
