Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes
Paradise (Live)
[Intro]
This next song is dedicated to all the people
Who have ever been to a gig and didn't get a chance to go home
It's dedicated to all the people who lost their lives at the Bataclan
All the people that lost their lives at the MEN
This song is all about terrorists
And how I think they're all cowards and fucking scum
[Verse 1]
Where have all the virgins gone?
They left me here with nothing on
They tore my skin when they took my clothes
Left me here with broken bones
Dead eyes and the sweat and blood
Face down in the dirt and the dust
With nothing left of what was me
[Chorus]
Your paradise does not exist
It's a tomb that's full of emptiness
But if there is a paradise
[Verse 2]
I am nothing but some scattered parts
A holy mess without a heart
All meat and bones and shredded skin
A shrapnel prayer in an IED
Suffocate in an empty tomb
And let the wolves in just to lick the wounds
And all the diamonds, all the gold
[Chorus]
Your paradise does not exist
But if there is a paradise, hidden up in the sky
I hope you never get to see it
[Bridge]
You coward fucking scum
[Chorus]
Your paradise does not exist
It's a tomb that's full of emptiness
But if there is a paradise, hidden up in the sky
I hope you never get to see it when you die
Your paradise does not exist
It's a tomb that's full of emptiness
But if there is a paradise, hidden up in the sky
I hope you never get to see it when you die
Your paradise does not exist
It's a tomb that's full of emptiness
But if there is a paradise, hidden up in the sky
I hope you never get to see it when you die
