Shifting Paradigms - Mutiny On The Bounty

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
