Lyrics

(Verse 1) For a thousand years you’ve held the chains Rules the masses through collection bowls Done what you want ignored their pains Power influence at the cost of their souls (Pre-chorus) Time has come don’t you see? That your ride is no longer free Your bishops popes priests they don’t matter The people you can no longer batter (Chorus) Don’t you see Your paradigm is dying You can’t stop it Your paradigm is dying Don’t you see Your paradigm is dying You can’t stop it Your paradigm is dying (Verse 2) Every day you lose control Can’t even keep your nuns in line Been so long you’ve forgotten your role Every day your power’s in decline Trying to hold onto an Old World Just can’t adapt to a New Age From the parapets you are hurled As all the people express their rage (Pre-chorus) Can’t stop the signal the truth is out Your corruption throws a blanket of doubt In our daily lives you don’t matter Find your holy world is in tatters (Chorus) Don’t you see Your paradigm is dying You can’t stop it Your paradigm is dying Don’t you see Your paradigm is dying You can’t stop it Your paradigm is dying (bridge) (Verse 3) Destruction of youth is your stock and trade You hide the guilty like a game of shells From the Lord’s path you’ve strayed The public outrage you cannot quell Tell the woman “no choice for you” “On your knees in obedience” Hypocrisy taints all that you do Still you hide all your deviants (Pre-chorus) You’re stuck adrift on a sea of change Your own downfall is what you arrange From the people you are estranged And your actions become deranged (Chorus) Don’t you see Your paradigm is dying You can’t stop it Your paradigm is dying Don’t you see Your paradigm is dying You can’t stop it Your paradigm is dying (Verse 4) Can’t hold on can’t maintain your grip Can’t buy influence don’t have the cash The people are filling out your pink slip Can no longer dominate with the lash Medieval minds in a digital age In a world that doesn’t need you now All you have is impotent rage It’s the end for you so long ciao (Pre-chorus) Don’t listen to me I’ve nothing to say All around your edges are starting to fray Down on your knees and try to pray Maybe then he will show you the way (Chorus) Don’t you see Your paradigm is dying You can’t stop it Your paradigm is dying Don’t you see Your paradigm is dying You can’t stop it Your paradigm is dying
