The Paradise Planets Song Lyrics

Song lyrics from the album for The Paradise Planets: The Fallen from Paradise by Shaun Barrowes.

Uneven Sky 

Music and Lyrics by Shaun Barrowes


Vs. 1

Save your breath and breathe

In a dreamless sleep

Where your mind drifts away

Always out of reach


Chorus

You’re all stars from the same uneven sky

It’s your time to come down, share that light


Vs. 2

You’re a ghost in the void

Of an endless sleep

Everywhere you turn

There is only me


Chorus (Repeated)


Bridge:

Zînar i japáb tuví japat

Lev în sînyom dormiat

Ubi ándesh poþ tuví kiliat

Méshû mun van tordoiat


Final chorus

They’re all moths to the flame

And they don’t know why

It’s your choice if you save them

From that fire


Fountain of Youth / Fountain of Youth, Pt. 2

BPM 165 in 3/4


VS 1

Life might pass me by again

Time can happen so fast, when

Hours seem long but the years are soon gone

And you're left wondering where all the time went


CHORUS

With a Fountain of Youth we can be young forever

When the old becomes new we can make our own heaven

Sound out the truth to rejuvenate body and soul

For everyone

And we'll always be young


VS 2

Maybe the good things don't have to end

Saving up all our tomorrows

Let's spend the day like it won't fade away

Like there's time in a safe we can borrow


CHORUS

With a Fountain of Youth we can be young forever

When the old becomes new we can make our own heaven

Sound out the truth to rejuvenate body and soul

For everyone

And we'll always be young


BRIDGE

I never thought we would find the solution

What if we outlive the stars and the sun

Don’t spend the time without loving someone

So we’re not the only ones


CHORUS

With a Fountain of Youth we can be young forever

When the old becomes new we can make our own heaven

Sound out the truth to rejuvenate body and soul

For everyone

And we'll always be young



Ashkana Tuv 

Music and Lyrics by Shaun Barrowes


Remember when you’d twirl to the vinyl records from my past

You would spin with arms wide open, bouncing as you laughed

You’d make me stand and hold your hands ‘til I was dancing too

That was you, and ashkana tuv


Remember when you learned all the lyrics to your favorite songs

When you thought nobody was looking, you would sing it strong

You’d change the key

Or melody

And then repeat that tune

That was you, and ashkana tuv


All the days I spent far away, the winds were pulling me home

Surrounded by those floating with excitement, I was heavy like a stone

Those memories 

I didn’t see,  

I knew I had to get back to

Me and you–you


Remember when the days turned to seasons right before my eyes

I never could slow time no matter how hard I tried

Replay the years

Through nostalgic tears

One thing is always true

I still love you, ashkana tuv



Champion of My Dreams

From “The Paradise Planets”

Music and lyrics by Shaun Barrowes



Vs 1 

How many times must I fall down before I get this

Only the voice inside will take me to the finish

How much abuse must I ignore before I break free

Why does it take so long to win the smallest victory 


Chorus 

I will rise from the lowest lows

I’ll take what you’ve never given me

yeah I feel it within my bones

I’ll be the champion of my dreams


Vs 2 

How many strings must I unwind to be untangled

Been in their web of lies for far too long to handle

How much arrest can I allow before I realize

Even the least of us deserve a chance at Paradise


Chorus 

I will rise from the lowest lows

I’ll take what you’ve never given me

yeah I feel it within my bones

I’ll be the champion of my dreams


Vs 3 

Life in the deep, the trench - it’s all I’ve ever known

I’m gonna leave it all - go as far as I can go


Chorus 

I will rise from the lowest lows

I’ll take what you’ve never given me

yeah there’s victory within my bones

I’ll be the champion of my dreams


Champion of my dreams

Champion

Champion of my dreams

Champion

Supernova

Music and Lyrics by Shaun Barrowes


Vs 1


Ay - The distance had dimmed all my shine 

I felt like I’ve fallen behind 

The sparks i had left couldn’t start my fire 


Oh - I held to the last of my hope

I found a new light in me grow

Speaking a language I’ve always known 


Chorus

Bright as the sun all my starlight’s begun to erupt

I finally believe it

They’re just within reach all my treasures and dreams that I lost

And now I can see it

My supernova

It’s all that i needed 

My supernova

I now have a reason to shine


Vs 2

When so many have gone where I’ve been

To help me find power from within

Where would I be without all of them?


Hey - now it’s my turn to be brave

To trust in the choices I made

Remember what I learned along the way 


Chorus

Bright as the sun all my starlight’s begun to erupt

I finally believe it

They’re just within reach all my treasures and dreams that I lost

And now I can see it

My supernova

It’s more than a feeling

My supernova

It’s given me reason to shine


Bridge

I wondered if I’d never know

Who I’m supposed to become 

I’ve waited so long on my own - alone

Hoping I’d find my way home - back home


Chorus

Bright as the sun all my starlight’s begun to erupt

I finally believe it

They’re just within reach all the faces and things that I loved

Why couldn’t I see it

My supernova

From the beginning

My supernova 

Was all i was needing

My supernova

It’s more than a feeling

My supernova 

It’s given me reason to shine



Hop, Skip, and a Jump

Music by Shaun Barrowes; Lyrics by Darren Reid

 

Vs. 1

Baby

I’ve been missing you for weeks

I Said, Baby

I’ve been missing you

I’ve been calling holophone

And wondering if your home

So I’m going to get there fast


Chorus: 

A hop, skip, and a jump—I’m with you

A hop, skip, and a jump—and I’m there

A hop, skip, and a jump 


Vs. 2

Baby

We’ve been far apart too long

Baby 

We’ve been far apart

I’m worried that you’ll find

Someone else is on your mind

So I’m going to get there fast

 

Chorus (repeated)


Please believe me when I say

That I’m right on my way

And to show you that I care


Instrumental Solo

A hop, skip and a Jump

A hop, skip and a Jump—whoa 


Please believe me when I say

That I’m right on my way

And to show you that I care


Chorus (repeated)

Baby!


A hop, skip and a jump!


See You On the Other Side

Music and Lyrics by Shaun Barrowes


Vs. 1 - 

Your words are like an echo

More than just a memory

Telling me to let go of my rage

When it’s here to give me company 


How do I go back to

Tryin’ to rise above this

Now that I’m without you to get on my case

Is it really all up to me? 


I’m living in the shadows

Ever since your light went out


Chorus

See you on the other side

See you on the other side

You’re gonna be back in my life

See you on the other side


Vs. 2 - 

You got me through the hard times

Always had the answers

But now I feel so lost, I am so confused

Drifting like a boat without a sail


I feel like this is my fault

Though you would never blame me

I’m the one who brought all of this on you

No matter what I do, I always fail


We’re living in the shadows

Ever since your light went out


Chorus - 

See you on the other side

See you on the other side

You’re gonna be back in my life

See you on the other side

Alli alli alli lado

Alli alli alli lado


How do I go back to

Tryin’ to find a rescue

Now that I’m without you to guide me home

Is it really all up to me? 


See you on the other side

See you on the other side


Chorus

See you on the other side

See you on the other side

You’re gonna be back in my life

See you on the other side

Alli alli alli lado

Alli alli alli lado


See you on the other side

See you on the other side

See you on the other side



All the Day Long

Music and Lyrics by Shaun Barrowes


Vs. 1

Dive in the ocean - cut through the water

Go with the motion that’s taking you there

Channel your voices to ride out the distance

Turn up the noise that’ll drown the fear


Speed is the answer to all the hard questions

Doubt is the cancer that slows it all down

Our hands are stretched and our feet are ready

To blast us faster than the speed of sound


Chorus

With the shaloor we can sing it out

We sing as one til we feel the power

With our pain we reshape each song

We sing, we dance and we can do this all the day long


Vs. 2

A ton of emotion comes with every anthem

This flood of devotion is turning the tide

Our sound is on fire it feels like the remedy

To every sickness that could break my stride


Chorus

With the shaloor we can sing it out

We sing as one til we feel the power

With our pain we reshape each song

We sing, we dance and we can do this all the day long


Bridge

We’re king of the ocean and queen of the water

The blue has given us a place to be heard

Our lungs are full and our voice is ready

To blast our melodies around the world


Chorus

With the shaloor we can sing it out

We sing as one til we feel the power

With our pain we reshape each song

We know the music is never wrong


We get fire from within our bones

We’re giving life into every tone

We find all weakness and make it strong

We sing, we dance and we can do this all the day long



Army of Queens and Kings 

Music and Lyrics by Shaun Barrowes


Vs. 1

If only one moment

Can put the wheels in motion 

And all it takes

Is a little faith

Could I become the master

The one with all the answers

To save us all

From an endless fall

To win this

And be the one to end this

I’ll build a thousand bridges

To start the greatest Army of Queens and Kings


Vs. 2

If I win this battle

But lose the greater struggle

What do I gain

From a meaningless pain

One heroic action

Is not enough to last when

Everything fades

So with every day 

I’ll win this

And be the one to end this

I’ll build a thousand bridges

To start the greatest army of queens and kings

Army of queens and kings


Vs. 3

If I can believe in

All I’m meant to be then

Couldn’t you too

And I could rise with you

To win this

And be the ones to end this

We’ll build a thousand bridges

To start the greatest army of queens and kings


Me believe it the only thing in front of me is 

Me not seeing the only thing in front of me is

Me believe it the only thing in front of me is 

Me not seeing the only thing in front of me is

Me believe it the only thing in front of me is 

Me not seeing the only thing in front of me is

Me not seeing the only thing in front of me is

Love these songs! I've marked them in the audiobook so I can listen, but a soundtrack would be even better...😉
