take a trip to see my life
secrets oh so deep in this place i once called paradise
hidden fears and forgoten dreams
a river of tears gleams
the ground so cracked and broken
with the saddness i have not spoken
trees that once shown so alive and well
now on the broken ground where they all fell
hopes drifting away everday its more
until soon they will die as well in this war
flowers once so colorful and tall
now sit on the ground gray and small
it seems only death in this desolate land 
in a world that was once so grand
so take this trip and see my life
and you'll know why i no longer call it paradise
