Lyrics Orla Gartland – Red Brick Paradise

Text:

Find your diaries
Pull apart the plastic, let’s get all nostalgic
We should think about
When we were 15, wondering what it all means

And we still don’t know

Garden shed talk
Trying to shake the week off, smoking on a see-saw
Never think about
Anything at all outside of our little world
And all the 10 guys, go out with the 10 girls

I wanna know why
We let the whole thing pass us by

I don’t want to know what fear feels like
No I just wanna live forever
In this red brick paradise
I don’t ever wanna know what real life feels like
No I just wanna live forever
In this red brick paradise

Every Friday, someone’s in a right state
Gotta learn the hard way
Only think about pulling all-nighters
Can I borrow your lighter
4 cans for a fiver
Shit, I miss it

No one wants to stay here
But no ones want to leave
I think we’ll be in trouble if we burst our lil bubble
I don’t know what to believe
To believe, to believe

I don’t want to know what fear feels like

No I just wanna live forever
In this red brick paradise
I don’t ever wanna know what real life feels like
No I just wanna live forever
In this red brick paradise

One night, when it got dark
I went back to our park
And oh, dear
It was awkward, and it felt weird
So I got up, and walked round
To your house and the church grounds
There was no one, to call for
So I just knocked on my own door
So I just knocked on my own door

I don’t want to know what fear feels like
No I just wanna live forever
In this red brick paradise
I don’t ever wanna know what real life feels like
No I just wanna live forever
In this red brick paradise
In this red brick paradise

One night, when it got dark
I went back to our park
And it felt wrong
That life went on, when we were gone
