Shortcut To Paradise 4:19
Richard Mekdeci and Fred Bogert
The fight for freedom rages in our hearts.
Closer and closer as we tear the walls apart.
The cause is holy and our aim is true.
But no amount of blood is ever worth a point of view.
The Shortcut To Paradise; straight into each other's eyes.
When the hatred turns to love, the gates of heaven open up.
Build your house on opinions and the house will surely fall.
Listen with your heart and hear the same voice guide us all.
Fight your way to heaven and you'll create a living hell.
The only wars to fight are those within ourselves
The Shortcut To Paradise; straight into your brother's eyes.
Turn the hatred into love, the gates of heaven open up.
The Shortcut To Paradise; take the turn or pay the price.
There is nothing left to do, look inside and know the Truth.
