I almost lost myself angry nights
Thought I'd give it all the way
Senseless things we do
Then we see light of day
Thought I'd give it all the way

Paradise is the hand in the store
Promise at a price to educate more
Paradise is the hand in the store
Slapped at a price will educate more

All the people in the rooms
I'd known so well
Smiling faces
The truth would never tell
I looked around it wasn't planned
I looked around I will expand
All the people in the rooms
I'd known so well
Smiling faces
The truth would never tell

A mask so thin
The world I don't believe would waste it's time
A mask so thin
Another world would never waste it's time
A mask so thin so fine
The boys would never waste their time conceiving
But they do and oh so well

Paradise is the hand in the store
Promise at a price to educate more
Paradise is the hand in the store
Slapped at a price will educate more

Two many many people
Stood in a room
That I'd known so well
Chewing the drinks, drinking the room
Dancing the room, tossing and turning
Finding themselves once turned by emotions
Never oneself
Strange how we grow

Smile keeps the secrets in
Strange how we wear the grin
