Black - Paradise Lost Lyrics
You know you're where it's atbut you don't know where that is,when your friends come round smilingand greet you with a kiss,Then push you in the dirtfrom behind.There's no time like the right timewhen the now times wearing thinfor their silver tinsel dressesand their microwave skinand their cheap books of romance.I think I'll take my chances.So I run like I'd run from a flood,like you know it's understood.That your golden hairwas never meant to weara paper crown.You know that a smileis their workaday face.You can't calculate the effortjust to keep it in its place.They don't shoot to kill, they'd always miss,so shoot to wound.Like they're always searching through your pocketslike they expect to find a answer.The truth is that the truth isas commonplace as cancer.If you'd only take the timeyou don't need to seek to find it.Just run like I'd run from a flood,like you know it's understood.That your golden hairwas never meant to weara paper crown.(solo)Run like you'd run for good,like the rivers running bloodand you see your life flashing by.I run like I'd run from a flood,like you know it's understood.That your golden hairwas never meant to weara paper crown,a paper crown,a paper crown,a paper crown.---
