Lump - Paradise lyrics

We'd go to sleep at night into a bed of light Free from unrest You held your shoulders high Let out an ancient cry free from your chest I remember paradise, up where the angels fly Life at the crest And we will be there again, somewhere towards the end No regrets The curtains, cover, sheets, and veils Do their best to hide the trail But when you turn to find the road You can't go home, you can't go home Remember it was paradise, you took your own advice That was it (That was it) You lived inside your telephone, a place you could be alone And chomp at the bit (Chomp at the bit) And now you are fully grown, you make your feelings known Boy, do they stick (Boy, do they stick) And now you're just some device, people will look at twice And soon forget (And soon forget) You clocked a master on the bus

The object of some ancient lust He showed you many ancient texts An ancient ways to catch your breath You long for a stronger life, something that's more precise Something ideal (Something ideal) You mourn for a world that was, a child in you lives because It's something you feel (Something you feel) Unbearable though it seems, this is the shape of dreams Bent to a will (Bent to a will) And now they are mobilised, cut down and fantasise Something real (Something real) Own advice, that was it Telephone, chomp at the bit Fully grown, boy do they stink And now you're just some device, people will look at twice And soon forget (And soon forget) Curtains, cover, sheets, and veils Do their best to cloak the trail But when you turn to find the road You can't go home, you can't go home
