Paradise
Once upon a year gone by
She saw herself give in (she's giving up on life)
Every time she closed her eyes
She saw what could have been(she regrets the past, she wanted to do something, but never did, asking herself..'what if?)
Well nothing hurts and nothing bleeds
When covers tucked in tight(she's not dying like in pain, shes like depressed and stuff)
Funny when the bottom drops
How she forgets to fight... to fight
(shes not fighting it, ..its like she wants to die)
And it's one more day in paradise
One more day in paradise
(today is her last day to live)
As darkness quickly steals the light
That shined within her eyes
(totally depressed)
She slowly swallows all her fear
And soothes her mind with lies
(she pretends things are going fine, when they just arn't)
Well all she wants and all she needs
Are reasons to survive
(shes trying to figure out why she should live...i believe she is about to comitt scuiside)
A day in which the sun will take
Her artificial light... her light
(shes going to die)
And it's one more day in paradise
One more day in paradise
It's one more day in paradise
One last chance to feel alright... alright
(she lives in a world where people around her are happy, but she has her own problems, and since this is her last day to live,cause shes gonna kill herself, shes just looking for a reason not to kill herself...one last chance to feel better...)
Don't pretend to hold it in just let it out
Don't pretend to hold it in just push it out
(dont pretend to be happy when your not, just express your true feelings)
Don't you try to hold it in just let it out and
Don't you try to hold it in you hold it in
One more day in paradise
One more day in paradise
It's one more day in paradise
One last chance to feel alright...
Once upon a year gone by
She saw herself give in
Every time she closed her eyes
She saw what could have been

well, thats how i look at Paradise....
someone who is lost and has no hope left..they just want to die, and they cant find reasons to stay alive...
i think its mainly about dealing with scuiside as an effect from depression
