I recall a closing door, and I remember Seeing shadows cross a stained glass sky Long before the strangers came down to steal our clothing And our consciences long before Eyes were empty Hearts were cold We'll watch the rattlesnakes slide Slowly swerve into view To tease and tantalize To sucker your senses and spit out the pieces Hey magazine girl She was living in a different world Or is it a he? Pull back the curtain my son I look around, the color has gone And slowly darkness descends upon me Paradiso, I know you lied, that much I see Well the serpent sings his song To so many sleeping staring eyes Like sheep they sing along And clap in time to a heart that's beating Crazy child, she was wicked Oh, she was wild Her eyes are open Pull back the curtain today I look around The color is gray Gray as the ghost town that towers above me Paradiso, I know you lied, that much is clear, to me I see the poet and the fool Walking hand in hand to school I recall the lonely outcast and I remember Laughing children, it was long before Their eyes were empty Hearts were cold So, dance this final dance with me I'll wrap my sting round your spine Will poison wash away the fear Wipe the world from my mind? Look up, what can you do? I looked around the color was blue Wise up, it's in your head I looked around me and the color is red Red as the words that I read on the wall Paradiso, kingdoms rise, so must they fall And only ashes remain in the end Paradiso, I know you lied, lies without end I'll see it again and again and again
