Welcome To Paradise

Dear mother

Can you hear me whining?

Its been three whole weeks

Since I left your home

This sudden fear has left me trembling

Cause now it seems that I am out here on my own

And Im feeling so alone

Pay attention to the cracked streets

And broken homes

Some call it the slums

Some call it nice

I want to take you through a wasteland I like to call my home

Welcome to paradise

A gunshot rings out at the station

Another urchin snaps and left dead on his own

It makes me wonder why Im still here

For some strange reason its now

Feeling like my home

And Im never gonna go

Pay attention to the cracked streets

And broken homes

Some call it the slums

Some call it nice

I want to take you through a wasteland I like to call my home

Welcome to paradise

Dear mother can you hear me laughing

Its been six whole months since

I have left your home

It makes me wonder why Im still here

For some strange reason its now

Feeling like my home

And Im never gonna go

Pay attention to the cracked streets

And broken homes

Some call it the slums

Some call it nice

I want to take you through a wasteland I like to call my home

Welcome to paradise
