I've seen all the world and been to the stars

The brightest lights and the darkest dark

I've won all the medals and played all the parts

But there's still a hole inside of my heart

When I close my eyes

I'm one step closer to paradise

With my heart open wide

I can see the beauty beyond this skyline

Mysteries breaking through space and time

Questions keep taking me back inside

So I close my eyes and I'm one step closer

To paradise

I've held all the virtues and committed the sins

Don't care if I lose or care if I win

I just wanna know what's beneath the silence

Cause there's got to be more to life than this

When I close my eyes

I'm one step closer to paradise

With my heart open wide

I can see the beauty beyond this skyline

Mysteries breaking through space and time

Questions keep taking me back inside

So I close my eyes and I'm one step closer

To paradise
