LYRICS

Everyday is a long disguise

Everyday is a compromise

I can tell a blatant lie

While looking you deep in your eye

Everyday I look for a sign

What triggers your death

Triggers mine

We will ride together in the end

Assassin, assassin

Show me paradise

Life is not the same

Assassin, assassin

Show me paradise

I'll never be the same

Twenty years, a loyal friend

But now the knife is in my hand

I can't begin to understand

How I've been deceived

Show me visions out of time

Greater than my stinking life

If I serve you to the end

I will find some peace

Assassin, assassin

Show me paradise

Life is not the same

Assassin, assassin

Show me paradise

I'll never be the same

Baksheesh, Baksheesh

I'd sell my sainted mother

For another glimpse of paradise

Baksheesh, baksheesh 

Twenty years, deep cover

For another glimpse of your paradise

Assassin, assassin

Show me paradise

Life is not the same

Assassin, assassin

Show me paradise

I'll never be the same

I'll never be the same
