Burning Down Paradise Lyrics


Do you believe in God in heaven

Do you believe or have you lost the faith

Did you ever try getting blood from a stone

No-one hears you scream when your standing alone

Nothin else to give, we´re killin ourselves to live

It´s a crime and we´re wasting time

All the young dudes with serious attitudes

It´s a crime and we´re wasting time

I want what´s yours and you want what´s mine

It´s a crime and we´re wasting time

Little of what is said makes sense inside my head,

It´s a crime and we´re wating time

Burning down Paradise

Like taking matches and gasoline and placing

it in a child´s hand

Burning down Paradise

Is it too late (too late)

Burn, we´re burning Paradise

Man with a gun talks about revolution

Do you really believe that it´s a solution

Does it make you laugh when you hear them lying

Do you cry like a child ´cus you´re scared of dying

He´s the king of the alley, his queen´s the gutter cat

It´s a crime and we´re wasting time

Man bleeding in the rain, we ain´t got time to feel his pain

It´s a crime and we´re wasting time

There´s a man with a grin, says he´s free from sin

It´s a crime and we´re wasting time

we´re sliding into mud, man I´ve had enough

It´s a crime and we´re wasting time
