Paola Lyrics
If you ask me we'll go all the way
Set fire to the school we once went to
You and I
Some might that say
That we threw our lives away
But Paola they're all just lies
Cruel and dark
Like the shadows under your eyes
If you ask me I will sure agree
Can't wait another day
Can't wait another year
At 23 the waves came crashing over me
But Paola we worked it out
High and low and lighters in the sky
Picture a sky where there are no clouds
Turn the city into flames
Everything they built for us
Everything we couldn't change
It was not our mission or our religion
Just something we went through
And no one's gonna tell us what to do
If you close your eyes it disappears
Makes less of a sound
Than a whisper in your ear
We couldn't say no to a life in stereo
So Paola we'll go out tonight
High and low and we are out of sight
Picture a sky where there are no clouds
Turn the city into flames
Everything they built for us
Everything we couldn't change
It was not our mission or our religion
Just something we went through
And no one's gonna tell us what to do
We're free listen to me
Rather burn than put the fire out
Everything they said to us
Everything we had to doubt
It was not our mission or our religion
Just something we went through
And no one's gonna tell us what to do
