"Paradise Lost"

Always looking
But too afraid to touch
Always asking
But never too much
Always so close
But not enough to trust
So what's it going to take
What's it going to take

Always reaching
But never in reach
Always giving
But nothing you can keep
Always forgiving
But can't turn the other cheek
So what's it going to take
What's it going to take
To break this

Fall into ashes
To rise in flames
Take on the struggle
Just to find the strength
Paradise is found
As you're lost along the way
So don't be afraid, 'fraid

Always running
But never quite there
Always becoming
But still never quite there
Always trying
But never there, there, there
What's it going to take

Fall into ashes
So you can rise in flames
We only die
To be reborn again
Paradise is found
As you're lost along the way
So don't be afraid, 'fraid

If you're always on your way
If it always starts another day
If you can't find it then find a way
This life has meaning, don't lose it
