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 save
 (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 my 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
