Paradise is next door (23.08.2007)

 

I walked through the tenement

And knocked at every door

The man up on the street

Had told me only „Second floor“

 

Noone even knew about

The place I liked to see

Except the man in the last flat

That´s what he said to me

 

I´m sorry but

Paradise is next door

Reality is what I´ll give to you

I´m sorry but

Paradise is next door

From me you get just kind of thruth

I´m sorry but

Paradise is next door

Here you get a live with every sin

I´m sorry but

Paradise is next door

But in my house you´ll forget what you have been

 

I told that there is no flat

Beside the one he owns

He smiled and offered me a drink

While I just liked to go

 

He said: „I´ll show you sunrise

And sunset and the rain

I will show you different ways

With fun and hate and pain“

 

So I saw his smile

And I wondered why

Do I not like my life

And why

Can´t I give a fuck on paradise
