The Paradigm Lyrics

I walk with my eyes closed, exposed fear and insecurities forbade
I'm a loving father, a caring child, and a martyr in the making
A fear of rejection, and a lack of reflection have left realities betrayed
On disciples' vines, ripe for the taking
I'd give anything to rid the world of all your lies
I'd sell my soul to bleed repentance from your veins.

Another year older
One more mindless grievance for all the pain I'm told was you
Have faith. A better day is breaking

I'm a typical earthling, a disparaging paradigm, both fault and virtue.
I'm a feeble resistance to everything nature's wrath has thrown my way.
I'm an antagonistic, selfish social misfit bent on hating.
I'm a typical earthling.

Shape the illiterate worldview into policies of rancor, doubt, and fear
Secular fervor, racial fire, and solipsistic branding
I've a bitter affection for the wayward direction of truth. I'm but a simple financier
But I'll be the last crusader standing
'Cause I'd give anything to cleanse the earth of all your lies
I'd sell my stocks to bleed redemption from your chains

I'm a typical earthling, a disparaging paradigm, both fault and virtue
I'm a feeble resistance to everything nature's wrath has thrown my way.
I'm an antagonistic, selfish social misfit bent on hating.
I'm a typical earthling.
Follow, concede; face it, you're no more human than divine
Swallowed, feeding, embrace it; your world is leaving you behind
Be saved, be freed, belong, because between reality and time
Your faith will fade away

I'd give anything to free the world from all your lies
Farewell to every shred of promise that remains

I'm a typical earthling, a disparaging paradigm, both fault and virtue.
I'm a feeble resistance to everything nature's wrath has thrown my way.
I'm an antagonistic, selfish social misfit bent on hating.
I'm a typical earthling.
