Everybody tells me to forget But when I hear the song in your voice I just can't get away from you The feeling begins anew That's how it was when we first met Lovin' your skin was more important Felt the tip of your tongue When you had me all wrong Even in your death I've got life in my palm But I just can’t get away from all these memories   Every time I close my eyes I wake up in a Paradise Wishing someone else was here tonight To push my desires And carve out my dreams To match the life   I've been waiting for There is no medicine for this kind of treatment   Your face is one big memory Your brain is like a eulogy split into All the things you've done And it won't leave my mind Your ghost is haunting me But now it’s telling me that all we had is dead I wish for everything To go insane So I can rest my brain Stay in bed What you made me do Was too much for you I was too good to you But it's not over yet As this dream scene makes me see all the things you've done Once haunted by your darkened melody All over again I'm not here to stay in your waking mess Not mesmerized by your burning soul Your eyes so cold and alone Even when I get to heaven I know Gratitude defines the truth in My soul I got out of that void a long time ago Now waiting on the other side Maybe one day I'll find him People ask me how you live on I tell em when you find true love It lives within your blood It lives it does not move on Everytime I close my eyes I wake up in a Paradise Wishing someone else was here tonight To help my desires come to life   I've waited for so long And all I can do Is be true Knowing you once made me feel Alive My heart has mended the wall   And I won't stay to try to convince it to feel something else That is inauthentic As this dream scene makes me See all the things you've done Once haunted by your darkened melody All over again My standards have become all the more honest   And I just can't wait to get away tonight

Paradise mine
Everybody tells me to forget But when I hear the song in your voice I just can't get away from you The feeling begins anew That's how it was when we first met Lovin' your skin was more important Felt the tip of your tongue When you had me all wrong Even in your death I've got life in my palm But I just can’t get away from all these memories   Every time I close my eyes I wake up in a Paradise Wishing someone else was here tonight To push my desires And carve out my dreams To match the life   I've been waiting for There is no medicine for this kind of treatment   Your face is one big memory Your brain is like a eulogy split into All the things you've done And it won't leave my mind Your ghost is haunting me But now it’s telling me that all we had is dead I wish for everything To go insane So I can rest my brain Stay in bed What you made me do Was too much for you I was too good to you But it's not over yet As this dream scene makes me see all the things you've done Once haunted by your darkened melody All over again I'm not here to stay in your waking mess Not mesmerized by your burning soul Your eyes so cold and alone Even when I get to heaven I know Gratitude defines the truth in My soul I got out of that void a long time ago Now waiting on the other side Maybe one day I'll find him People ask me how you live on I tell em when you find true love It lives within your blood It lives it does not move on Everytime I close my eyes I wake up in a Paradise Wishing someone else was here tonight To help my desires come to life   I've waited for so long And all I can do Is be true Knowing you once made me feel Alive My heart has mended the wall   And I won't stay to try to convince it to feel something else That is inauthentic As this dream scene makes me See all the things you've done Once haunted by your darkened melody All over again My standards have become all the more honest   And I just can't wait to get away tonight
The past is only significant in that it provides the important opportunity to help make us stronger and resilient as well as to prevail in times of struggle and distress both emotionally, physically, and mentally to overcome what we go through as human beings
