ParagonHear, can you hear them coming?The voracious hounds surround There's no sense running No hiding out, they will hunt me Down, life worth living For the taste of fear, a trail of Tears leads them near Scents of my flesh ripping But I'm still here Excavate my earth Exhume my corpses Parading your dismay Of a face contorted I laid them to rest You attempt new life To display your virtue, garner the eyes Let it die Let it die young Let it die young Behind the glass Barricade yourself free Strong in isolation Weak upon your feet Reinvent yourself An effigy Painted face, a guarded place To force your beliefs Paragon From a distance, you just play your part In your own fiction Paragon From a distance, you tell anyone Who will listen From afar a quintessential being Your facade is your existence You dare not swim in your salt and your sulfur High above the ruinous faults of your brothers Give them something they can turn to, human unbeing The world will look upon you and learn nothing, nothing Let the graves be graves Let the graves be graves Are you searching for your life at their gallows? Are you searching for your light in their shadows? Paragon From a distance, you tell anyone Who will listen From afar a quintessential being Your facade is your existence Ripped apart by corruption and power Breeders of hatred, subdivisions of greed See your reflection All access to platforms to spread their disease In a world that's bleeding Be a cell that clots, watch it renew The peace comes in pieces Let the inception of war end with you Let it die Let it die young, young |
