This Paradise Crumbles Lyrics - Singles - Fall Of Empyrean

This life you lead 

Seems to bring you 

All the happiness you need 

The ones you love 

In your times of grief 

The tears of joy 

Stream from your eyes 

From the peace that you feel 

From the love inside 

Through how could this last 

For so very long 

Then one day it turns 

And it all goes wrong 

[Chorus] 

This happiness in your life 

Has now turned to bitter strife 

You wonder what went wrong inside 

All you touch just seems to die 

The beauty that you adored 

Seems to be so ignored 

By a God in which you believe 

But has turned to deceit 

Those you love slowly die in your arms 

Their blood soaks your hands 

And won't wash away 

The skies turn gray 

Rain storms to the ground 

The air thick, so black 

The walls come down 

The disease spreads 

It kills without a sound 

This crumbling paradise 

No more life to be found 

[Repeat Chorus] 

What was once such a peaceful land 

Has quickly turned to waste 

Its tears of blood that 

Begin to flow down his beaten face 

His mournful cries tells 

Tales of the decades of his pain 

He's lost his mind, descending downward, 

Drowning deep in gray
