Paris

(Instrumental) (Verse 1) Paris, at night is a world unlike any other Resplendent respite from the flashing lights Over and under and through the tunnels Veering, steering through fog and purging haze Only the strongest survive, the truest do rise Above the wretched system, designed to break To shatter, to wipe clean and to rebuild A new identity, built and bought by everyone (Pre-Chorus) A tale as old as time A nifty little program of a human's design To break, to reformat, to rebuild and rewrite A city, a world, one whose lights dared to- Shine too brightly (Chorus) Hazy streets and an otherwise peaceful night Walking through this, this my glorious respite Yet deep down, I feel it too, it's calling out again A pop-culture tornado, is tearing it's way near An emergency, a challenge to everything I sold To get me here, my sacrifice, my privacy I gave it all away and now, my art is gone too It doth succumb, to the siren song of you (Instrumental) (Instrumental) (Verse 2) Please don't let the truth, the one buried away Rewritten by the zeal of overzealous journalists Overwrite my heart, undervalue my work Violate my every last wish, my every last word Of which, I scream out, violent acts brought out The truth which had been shelved Has fallen right back out again, I send A smile and a nod, towards you (Pre-Chorus) A tale as old as time A nifty little program of a human's design To break, to reformat, to rebuild and rewrite A city, a world, one whose lights dared to- Shine too brightly (Chorus) Hazy streets and an otherwise peaceful night Walking through this, this my glorious respite Yet deep down, I feel it too, it's calling out again A pop-culture tornado, is tearing it's way near An emergency, a challenge to everything I sold To get me here, my sacrifice, my privacy I gave it all away and now, my art is gone too It doth succumb, to the siren song of you It hath succumbed, and thus I bequeath this To you (Instrumental) (Outro) La-la-la-la-la-la-land We all wanna go La-la-la-la-la-la-land We all gotta go La-la-la-la-la-la-land Stay away. La-la-la-la-la-la-land (Instrumental) (Instrumental) (Instrumental)
