Lost Paradise

(Verse 1) We built a place where we could breathe, Far from the shit we had to leave. I broke my back to build you skies, You pissed it all away on lies. (Pre-Chorus) You turned your head, You pulled the knife, You fucked up the only thing worth the fight. (Chorus) Smoke on the wind, A life we could've had burned down. Ash in the clouds, Now it’s nothing but hollow ground. Hope gone blind, You gave it up and left me behind. (Verse 2) I carved a road through every storm, You bit the hand that kept you warm. You saw the cracks, you missed the light, You cursed the wings I gave for flight. (Pre-Chorus) You turned your head, You pulled the knife, You fucked up the only thing worth the fight. (Chorus) Smoke on the wind, A life we could've had burned down. Ash in the clouds, Now it’s nothing but hollow ground. Hope gone blind, You gave it up and left me behind. (Verse 3) I buried dreams beneath my feet, You fed the fire with every cheat. You tore the map, you cut the wire, You killed the spark and called it fire. (Pre-Chorus) You turned your head, You pulled the knife, You fucked up the only thing worth the fight. (Chorus) Smoke on the wind, A life we could've had burned down. Ash in the clouds, Now it’s nothing but hollow ground. Hope gone blind, You gave it up and left me behind. (Bridge) You broke the wings, You broke the trust, You broke the hands that pulled you up. You left the wreck, You left the sound, You dragged the whole damn dream to the ground. (Final Chorus) Smoke on the wind, A life we could've had burned down. Ash in the clouds, Now it’s nothing but hollow ground. Hope gone blind, You gave it up and left me behind. (Outro - whispered) You gave it up... You gave it up... You gave it up... I won't forget... You gave it up.
