A kind of eden

A Kind of Eden

Look through my eyes
behind my disguise
and you’ll find a place
with no grace

All there is left
In this colourless room
Is the echo of sadness and gloom

Hidden in a corner
behind all the tears
is a good spot with no fear

It’s a garden
a kind of Eden
Where I have spent most of my life
dreaming

You’ll find me here
in my colourful trees
picking the flowers
of my destiny
My future’s ahead
but my past will remain
so I’m killing the flowers
of yesterday’s pain

I’m nursing the trees
from this season’s pollution
protecting my own illusion
But it’s so hard to take care
of something that
ain’t really there
really there

You’ll find me here
in my colourful trees
picking the flowers
of my destiny
My future’s ahead
but my past will remain
so I’m killing the flowers
of yesterday’s pain

You’ll find me here
in my colourful trees
picking the flowers
of my destiny
My future’s ahead
but my past will remain
so I’m killing the flowers
of yesterday’s pain

It’s just my way
to get by
It’s just my way
to goodbye

You’ll find me here
in my colourful trees
picking the flowers
of my destiny
My future’s ahead
but my past will remain
so I’m killing the flowers
of yesterday’s pain

You’ll find me here
in my colourful trees
picking the flowers
of my destiny
My future’s ahead
but my past will remain
so I’m killing the flowers
of yesterday’s pain

For me it is
a kind of Eden
