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
