Death in Paradise

[Intro]
And here we are
Where mirages are all man-made
Where dreams can kill
And love is always too late

[Verse 1]
She's a runaway looking for better days
But no one told her the truth about this place
Sand turns to liquor, water turns to wine
You thought different but for you‚ this isn't paradise
Teardrops that disappear into an ocean
That doesn't really care about you
Everyone wants to be a flower in the desert
But there's only water out there for a few

[Chorus]
So here we are
Where mirages are all man-made
Where dreams can kill
And love is always too late
So here we are
Where mirages are all man-made
Some will be able to pay in spades
But for you‚ this isn't paradise

[Verse 2]
A girl gone rogue with a face designed for Vogue
But the beauty's just a bandage‚ she's all alone
And if she feels the spotlight, she'll find that some can burn
The game is never-ending once you get your turn
The glitter and fame
And if you turn around, it fades away
You can have it all depending
On if you can pay a high price

[Chorus]
So here we are
Where mirages are all man-made
Where dreams can kill
And love is always too late
So here we are
Where mirages are all man-made
Some will be able to pay in spades
But for you‚ this isn't paradise

[Instrumental Outro]
