A glassy stare across the room Reveals of a life that burned up too soon The price for pleasure is so high In a world of sorrow You needed just a little more To find out what you're really living for You turned a handful of dreams Into dust You've got two coal stones in your eyes Your life is like a bunch of lies Did you ever realize The blood-stained reality You shiver from the coldness inside Cold turkey hits you by surprise You sink into an eternal isolation You rolled the dice with your life And found your sweet paradise Now you know the ugly truth You're livin' a nightmare in disguise Tell me man who is gonna wipe away Those tears of blood You can feel the needle sticking under your skin A burning rush and the smell of sin The poison corrupts your mind With confusion You have lost the sense of time Your lifeless lump ain't worth a dime At the end of the line There'll be no tomorrow Liquid paradise Nightmare in disguise
