Autumn In Paradise

There's a fog outside my window
There's a beggar at my door
There's a madman screaming on the street
But I don't know what for
There's a hungry, lonesome drifter
He don't fit anywhere
There's a train leaving the station
He can't afford the fare

Autumn in paradise
Invisible all your life
Autumn in paradise
Who can afford the price?

There's a white carnation growing
In a garden overgrown
There's a factory that's empty
No one works there anymore
Down the street of broken families
Dreams are in the trash
A father begs forgiveness
But it's much too late for that

Autumn in paradise
Invisible all your life
Autumn in paradise
Who can afford the price?

If you ask me what I'm thinking
I won't tell you how I feel
I'm moving like a target
I've got nothing left to steal
There was something when you came here
There'll be nothing when you leave
A soul lacks all direction
When there's nothing to believe

Autumn in paradise
Invisible all your life
Autumn in paradise
Who can afford the price?
