Cheeseburger In Paradise - Jimmy Buffett

I've been believing in something so distant As if I was human And I've been denying this feeling of hopelessness In me, in me All the promises I made Just to let you down You believed in me, but I'm broken I have nothing left And all I feel is this cruel wanting We've been falling for all this time And now I'm lost in paradise As much as I'd like the past not to exist It still does And as much as I'd like to feel like I belong here I'm just as scared as you I have nothing left And all I feel is this cruel wanting We've been falling for all this time And now I'm lost in paradise Run away, run away One day we won't feel this pain anymore Take it all the way, shadows of you 'Cause they won't let me go 'Till I have nothing left And all I feel is this cruel wanting We've been falling for all this time And now I'm lost in paradise Alone and lost in paradise

Seeds of death are sown As the flames approach They scream in agony All life as we know, will simply be devoid Smoldering sands of time Dwindle down to dust A future of freedom Slips through your fingertips Every act of creation will reek of destruction We must reset mankind Create. Destroy Let them burn Within this spiraling void Hell awaits No soul is safe from me All life will be dehumanised This is the Infernus Within this spiralling void Hell awaits No soul is safe from me All life will be dehumanised This is the Infernus Mortified mothers are forced to watch their children suffer Swift black wings of death, lay the weak to rest Skies are turning grey Choking on thick ash Grisly scenes are unveiled around every darkened corner Your puny mind can not fathom these brutal lengths of torture Pungent stench fills the air While you choke on the smoke Gasping for your final breath Create. Destroy Let them burn Within this spiraling void Hell awaits No soul is safe from me All life will be dehumanised This is the Infernus Within this spiralling void Hell awaits No soul is safe from me All life will be dehumanised This is the Infernus The end of time is nigh Free spirits replaced by demons Mirrored in your loved ones eyes Mirrored in your loved ones eyes This is the INFERNUS In order to create a new beginning In order to create a new beginning You must embrace this signal of the end

I'm only half drunk If you were thinkin' of pourin' more wine It's only midnight And I got nothin', nothin' but time Is it half empty or half full? This glass of mine I'm only half wrong If you were thinkin' 'bout stayin' this time It's only midnight And I got nothin', nothin' but time It may be half-baked But I've got lots, lots of ideas Hey darlin', here's one Won't you come and lend me your ear? Like Mona Lisa gave old Da Vinci that half smile I'll paint a picture that will half convince you I'm fine It's only midnight And I've got nothin', nothin' but time I got half a mind to tell you 'bout it, brother It's always six of one, and half a dozen of the other This or that, tit for tat My baby's on the line I'm always only half the way to makin' her all mine I'm only half drunk If you'll be buyin' one more round I've been half crazy Tryin' to simmer, simmer on down You see half the people, but only half of half of the time Tell me, how can a nickel stand right up to a dime? I'm only half drunk This night is half gone And I'll be long gone before too long It's only midnight And I've got nothin', nothin' but time I'm only half drunk If you were thinkin' of pourin' more wine

She came down from Cincinatti It took her three days on a train Looking for some peace and quiet Hoped to see the sun again But now she lives down by the ocean She's taking care to look for sharks They hang out in the local bars And they feed right after dark Can't you feel them circling, honey?

Can't you feel them schoolin' around? You got fins to the left, fins to the right And you're the only bait in town You got fins to the left, fins to the right And you're the only girl in town
