stromkern - paradise lyrics
a reference to denial brings the construct down
dissolving in defiance of what i have found
searching for today
evading all the memories
the voice of time defines…
open the system to me
and i’ll show you what i mean
the persistance of resistance
is something so serene
and as the paradigm breaks
i’m still trying to escape
from a heaven that is burning
leaving beauty in its wake
why can’t i ever believe
in the paradise i’ve seen?
dissolution of illusion
is something so serene
and as the paradigm breaks
i’m still trying to escape
from a nightmare that is burning
leaving nothing in its wake
i’ve dreamt of dreaming
too many times
fractured and wasted
too many lives
i’ve never been so wrong
and with my chances gone
i find i’m drowing once again
this endless network
of blood and wires
connects the city
of blood and spires
the dream of memory
it’s just a dream for me
i trusted everything
and now i’m burning up inside…
open the system to me
and i’ll show you what i mean
the persistance of resistance
is something so serene
and as the paradigm breaks
i’m still trying to escape
from a heaven that is burning
leaving beauty in its wake
why can’t i ever believe
in the paradise i’ve seen?
dissolution of illusion
is something so serene
and as the paradigm breaks
i’m still trying to escape
from a nightmare that is burning
leaving nothing in its wake
tonight – making up for lost time
all the failings forgiven
just come on inside
this journey
you will never arrive…
and while i know
what we must have called upon
all the illusions, my confusions
have been idolized…
to live and dream forever
in the cracks between the networks
watching constellations rise and fall away
a synthesized perfection
high-speed connection
where i can disappear for days
well i doubt now
and i’m praying for a time
where conditions of existance
can be forever mine
in perfect simulation
some hallucination
of a silent paradise
and we invade tonight
and i’m just waiting to fall
and we’re searching for something
to convince us all
of reality’s persistance
dreaming the existance
of a virtual babylon…
