Paradise Is Lost

We're fallen stars from the sky
Leaving the heavens
Leaving the light
There's no place for us now
Closing my eyes
Wishing that I can turn back somehow
Far outside of the gates
Where the emptiness waits
Nothing left here to loose
Gone in the flames
Feeling the weight
Weight of it all
We built an empire
We thought was never ending
We tried to stop the fire
But, now there's no pretending
Beauty to dust
Paradise is lost
Paradise is lost
Is there blood on my hands?
Am I to blame?
I don't understand
In one breath it was gone
Gold were the days
That we laid to waste
In this burning sun
