Lyin' in my apartment, feel the walls
Breathin' out my doubt, out
On my back, there's a target
Shoot it down with a bullseye
Ow, they keep on pullin' me down

Don't let me go insane
There's hell in my pocket almost every day
And I'm losin' my mind
Losin' my mind lookin' for someone to blame
(Oh)

Somebody let me know why there's trouble in paradise
'Cause I been try, tryin' to get by
But a lover's eye never lies
Somebody let me know why there's trouble in paradise
'Cause I been try, tryin' to get by
But I lose my mind in paradise

In the Garden of Eden
But the good has been beaten out, out, out
Don't let me go insane
Light a cigarette to numb the pain
'Cause I, I don't wanna
I don't wanna have to lose again
(Oh)
Somebody let me know why there's trouble in paradise
'Cause I been try, tryin' to get by
But a lover's eye never lies
Somebody let me know why there's trouble in paradise
'Cause I been try, tryin' to get by
But I lose my mind in paradise

Somebody let me know why there's trouble in paradise

This town was a home
But the broken bones haunt me
I'm better off alone
But before this time I go

Somebody let me know why there's trouble in paradise
'Cause I been try, tryin' to get by
But a lover's eye never lies (Oh)
Somebody let me know why there's trouble in paradise
'Cause I been try, tryin' to get by
But I lose my mind in paradise
