I changed your mind 

And ended up here

Through stained glass eyes 

And colorful tears. 



Fine maybe, I'll pretend right now

But I swear to God I'm gonna 

Change the world and I promise

You someday, we'll tell ourselves 

"Oh my god, this is paradise." 



I cherish my American girl.

She holds them down, while I destroy the world

My desperate crimes, she don't seem to care.

She bites her tongue, so that we can tell each other 

"Baby this is paradise, and it's so Goddamn good." 

Now we live like we should. 



Fine maybe, I'll pretend right now

But I swear to God I'm gonna 

Change the world and I promise

You someday, we'll tell ourselves 

"Oh my god, this is paradise." 



Fine maybe, I'll pretend right now

But I swear to God I'm gonna 

Change the world and I promise 

You someday, we'll tell ourselves 

"Oh my god, this is paradise."
