You're an empty head in a hotel room,
With an empty hour in the afternoon.
And empty are the colors that your leaving soon,
For an empty road under the moon.
You're a makeshift island in a sea of red.
Holding back a beast that was slain instead.
And empty are the molds where you place your head.
Do you really see a heaven in this sinking lead?
Are you lookin' in the dark, when you could see too far? Oh too far
Paradise is not a mask, but a single spark.
Rolling all around your a ball of steel,
Looking for the ground that you used to feel.
But this tasteless space you learned to shield,
Made you a faceless maze and you were forced to yield.
Are you lookin' in the dark, when you could see too far? Oh too far
Paradise is not a mask, but a single spark.
It is not home that you know,
It is not gold that you've stowed. You are strong and you have hope.
Now be strong enough to go, enough to go, enough to go
Why you lookin' in the dark, when you could see too far? Oh too far
Paradise is not a mask, but a single spark.
Why you lookin' in the dark, when you could see too far? Oh too far
Paradise is not a mask, but a single spark.
