Vanessa Carlton

Once upon a year gone by she saw herself give in.
Every time she closed her eyes, she saw what could have been.
Well nothing hurts and nothing bleeds when covers tucked in tight.
Finally when the bottom drops out, she forgets to fight. To fight
And it's one more day in paradise.
One more day in paradise
As darkness quickly steals the light that shined within her eyes,
She slowly swallows all her fear and soothes her mind with lies.
Well all she wants and all she needs are reasons to survive.
A day in which the sun will take her artificial light, Her light
And it's one more day in paradise.
One more day in paradise
