Eden - Sara Bareilles
Let me paint a picture for you
then I'll have to
teach you to see it
Illustrate the remnants
of the life
I used to live here in Eden
Rolled a lucky pair of dice
ended up in paradise
Landed on a snake's eyes
took a bite and
ended up bleeding
You know if I could
change anything
I think I would
start with the name
The truth is all those angels
started acting the same
And I know
there's no going back
now cause
Life in Eden
Life in Eden changed
No way to make the
pain play fair
It doesn't disappear
just because you say
it isn't there
So when they ask
why'd she go
you can say cause
Life in Eden
Life in Eden changed
Life in Eden changed
Walking in the garden
was a serpent shaped
heart and he told me
what is broken
cannot show
and less than beautiful is
worse than unholy
Idolized my innocence
stole it from me in the end
Now I'm wide awakened
and still paying for the
poison they sold me
You know if I could
change anything
I think I would
start with the name
The truth is all those angels
started acting the same
And I know
there's no going back
now cause
Life in Eden
Life in Eden changed
No way to make the
pain play fair
It doesn't disappear
just because you say
it isn't there
So when they ask
why'd she go
you can say cause
Life in Eden
Life in Eden changed
Life in Eden changed
There was a time
I was taking all bets
That this place was even
better than as good as it gets
And now looking back
from the outside in
think I was choking on
the air in Eden
choking on the air in Eden
Life in Eden changed
You know if I could
change anything
I think I would
start with the name
The truth is all those angels
started acting the same
And I know
there's no going back
now cause
Life in Eden
Life in Eden changed
No way to make the
pain play fair
It doesn't disappear
just because you say
it isn't there
So when they ask
why'd she go
you can say cause
Life in Eden
Life in Eden changed
When they ask
why'd she go
Cause life in Eden
Life in Eden changed
Life in Eden changed
Life in Eden changed
