Eden

(album: Parachute - 1998)

All I want is the world
And everything for me
You can rattle off your talk
All that matters is what I see
If you break me down
Selfish desire is all you blame
Cause desperate times
Call for desperate measures
And I am not ashamed
Oh it took me a long time to come to this
And I have chosen my path
I am only for me
All my dreams are so closed
If I open them to you
You can count them all as lies
You can believe me or you can believe the truth
But I could let you in
Put your feelings on the shelf
There's only room cause it helps myself
Oh I could let you in
But it's to no avail
I only listen cause it helps myself
Oh it took me a long time to come to this
And I have chosen my path
I am only for me
I took a cane from a blind man
And I've tasted the fruit in the garden of Eden
When I walk out of here
I know I'll stand clear
But the taste in my mouth still remains
Still remains
Oh it took me along time
I am only for me
