Paradigm

Buried my face within my hands The same hands that erased him I've lived in metaphors Why don't they question a thing? I've said it all before They follow religiously What if they truly knew? How much I led them astray? Can hardly look at you Knowing your soul isn't safe (Not safe, not safe, not safe) I'm just a paradigm A flawless excuse to never analyze The form of abuse When will they recognize? They jeopardize morality They're following no one they should idolize Ooh, we stand like Gods amongst weak men Could we save them? Is there interest? What is my voice to you? Do I give something you need? Grant me my solitude or manifest like disease You want the painful truth? I never came here to serve And if you're still confused, look to my words for the proof I'm just a paradigm A flawless excuse to never analyze The form of abuse When will they recognize? They jeopardize morality They're following no one they should idolize We're all just venturing aimless With hopes to transcend If there's a price on the answer You're just a number to them (That stupid motherfucker) Just a number to them We stand like Gods amongst weak men Do we save them? Is there interest? I'm just a paradigm A flawless excuse to never analyze The form of abuse When will they recognize? They jeopardize morality They're following no one they should idolize
