Lyrics Shifting Paradigms - Mutiny On The Bounty

Shifting Paradigms

Time just passes by
Without a sound so anodyne
It dries out the things we said
Our memories, our waking dreams
Lies, so well disguised
In misspent youth we wait to die
They never leave, they never wash out
Once you try to clean your conscience
They spread like virus, they’re so vicious
But the road just never ends
But the road just never ends
Life gave me the eye
Had me confound
Shifting paradigms
Spending years as a cast out
The things we had were obsolete
Nights, erase our minds
All hell breaks loose
We wait to die
If it’s a game, I don’t wanna be a part of it
And now you wonder why?
While time runs through the veins of innocence
This crime hides through the veil of dissonance
Our kingdom is lost, what is happening?
They never leave, they never wash out
Once you try to clean your conscience
They spread like virus, they’re so vicious
But the road just never ends
But the road just never ends
If it’s a game, I don’t wanna be a part of it
