Paradise

This is the last thing that I ever wrote. It's from 2006. All I know is that I wrote it for Ricardo and ever since my inspiration has been gone. And yes, in my paradise the smoke can be shiny.

Paradise

Enter into my paradise

Where hungry cats feed upon dead rats and mice

Incandescent smoke flows throughout the air

Greedy fingers rake through stringy hair

Then you came to this beautiful place

I could hear your name, but not see your face

The darkness caved it, that's when I fell

Slower -- deeper -- into my hell

Would you come after me?

And be the one to make me see

That this isn't paradise at all

Just an easy place to fall

That's when I felt the rain on my face

And ran further for cover in this hellish place

But something stopped me and I think I know what

It was your hand and that kiss which pulled me out of that rut

The rain stopped and a light shined through

I found myself

But more importantly you

You see?

Through all the pain, fear, hatred, and my broken heart

I finally found your hand

In the dark

Help me find my inspiration

I think I lost it somewhere in Granada Hills.
