"Paradise" is a song by Alan Walker, K-391 and Boy in Space. It was a non-album release through MER and Sony Music in 2021 as a collaboration with mobile game PUBG Mobile (PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds). "Paradise" is used in the game's lobby and vehicle and also features in a release of unique game items of PUBG, a battle royale game on Android and iOS.
The song comes exactly two years after PUBG Mobile used the track "Live Fast (PUBGM)" by Alan Walker and rapper A$AP Rocky as an official anthem of a commercial release of theirs.
Music video[]
The track is accompanied by an official video and features as the next chapter in the "World of Walker", the story that has been ongoing in previous Alan Walker videos, particularly the music video "Faded". Despite the music video heavily resembling that of "Faded"'s, it was confirmed that it does not serve as its sequel, but rather serves as an expansion behind the 2015 music video's story, meaning that both videos occur at the same time.
A separate official live version was released as a music video under the title "Paradise (Live Performance)".
Lyrics[]
Said you would rather die young
Live for the moment, forget tomorrow
Guess that you'll got it all wrong
Still tryna find out which road to follow
Always try to ride those paper planes
Said that you were fine with my mistakes
Now we're tryna call on yesterday
To go back
We don't always get it right
Then lights go out, the music dies, no goodbye
Now you're gonna realize
I cast us out of paradise
Even if it all went down in flames
We can live to fight another day
Let go and close your eyes
And just remember paradise
(I know)
(Paradise)
(I know)
It doesn't matter tonight
There's a tomorrow for you to treasure
No sense in losin' our minds
To keep the pieces of us together
Thought about it for a while now
Questioned everything up in your life now
Maybe you should let it ride out
And everything will come around, yeah
We don't always get it right
Then lights go out, the music dies, no goodbye
Now you're gonna realize
I cast us out of paradise
Even if it all went down in flames
We can live to fight another day
Let go and close your eyes
And just remember paradise
(I know)
(Paradise)
(I know)
(Paradise)
Hold on, hold on
(Paradise)
(Paradise)
(Paradise)
We don't always get it right
Then lights go out, the music dies, no goodbye
Now you're gonna realize
I cast us out of paradise (cast us out of paradise)
(I know)
(Paradise)
Wow, wow, oh
Cast us out
We don't always get it right
Then lights go out, the music dies (the music dies)
Now you're gonna realize
I cast us out of paradise
