Paradigms

Every bully that had maimed you, bled you dry

And the blinkered say that boys will be boys

And they're just kids being sly

And they wonder why some die

Every image of perfection starts a goldmine

They gave you bulimia, those marketing masterminds

Happens all the time, all the time

And it breaks you up

Over time

And it breaks you up

Over time

Every moment in this dark world, I'm terrified

Reaching for a light in a gauntlet of toxic paradigms

Sometimes I wanna die

Sometimes

Every headline, they betray you and the little guy

But what would you expect from oligarchs and paedophiles

Makes you wonder why you even try

And it breaks you up

Over time

And it breaks you up

Over time

And it breaks you up

Breaks you up

Breaks you up

No one should feel like this

No one should feel like this

No one should feel like this

And it breaks you up

Breaks you up

Breaks you up

And it breaks you up

Over time

And it breaks you up

Over time
