Paradigm

Verse//

Well here we are, lost in translation again
No magic quests, no hints,
This time I’ve just gotta get out of bed
Something tells me the road gets rough ahead

Oh my--

Prechorus//

I am not waiting for my chance
To show you just who I am
I’m not sure who the hell I’m supposed to be
But time is running out

Chorus///

I drank milk from the jug at 2am
Oh, how in the hell do we get back here again

Unbearable doesn’t justify how it feels to be trapped on the outside
And I can’t maintain this paradigm

Get me through this god damn semester please
I’m slipping through the cracks of society

In terms of where I’m going I’ll be discreet
I gotta lotta people I’d like to meet

I can’t maintain this paradigm

_____________________________

Seems sorta rude to ask me why
I’m doing what I gotta do just to get by but
I see where’s there’s room to be confused
Not everyone likes to be reused

Life gives back the exact you put in
Like a half assed- money back bargain bid
I’m checking off the last of the cardinal sins
Said the man who doesn't know the mess he’s in

Gimme a break, I deserve it by now
With the express knowledge gained I know how
Cheating the system is not long term
As an overpowered, mystery hour, kill confirm


Why don’t you get it?
Options are: end it

This is judgement day or not

I spent a lot of time thinking bout’ the facts
And so this might just be my final act
I know it’s hard
I know it’s hard to get this through your head

I am not your pawn
Procedure supersedes your brawn
Fear will not succeed
Full disclosure’s what I need

Last time that I checked
You’re the one who can’t connect a
If status quo is less than fine
Find another paradigm

//Chorus
