Dear mother,
  Can you hear me whining?
  It's been three whole weeks
  Since that I have left your home
  This sudden fear has left me trembling
  Cause now it seems that I am out here on my own
  And I'm feeling so alone
    Pay attention to the cracked streets
  And the broken homes
  Some call it the slums
  Some call it nice
  I want to take you through
  a wasteland I like to call
  my home
  Welcome To Paradise
    A gunshot rings out at the station
  Another urchin snaps and left dead on his own
  It makes me wonder why I'm still here
  For some strange reason it's now
  Feeling like my home
  And I'm never gonna go
    Pay attention to the cracked streets
  And the broken homes
  Some call it slums
  Some call it nice
  I want to take you through
  a wasteland I like to call
  my home
  Welcome To Paradise
    Dear mother,
  Can you hear me laughing
  It's been six whole months since
  Since that I have left your home
  It makes me wonder why I'm still here
  For some strange reason it's now
  Feeling like my home
  And I'm never gonna go
    Pay attention to the cracked streets
  And the broken homes
  Some call it the slums
  Some call it nice
  I want to take you through
  a wasteland I like to call
  my home
  Welcome To Paradise
