Paradigm

C#m A E Everybody loves a rose, C#m A E But will you be thankful for the thorns? C#m A E Love is easy when you're loved, C#m A E But do you curse another when you're alone? {name: Chorus} C#m A E C#m A O---oh, I give my life to You E so I can gain it back again C#m A E O---oh, I stand solid F#m while the paradigm is shifting C#m A E You say live and let live, C#m A E But people are dying everyday C#m A E And you say what I don't know won't hurt me C#m But if what I do not know A E is the very thing I need, then I say... {name: Chorus} C#m A Humanity sees truth E through a shattered window pane C#m That blocks the view, A And plants the seed E C#m So we draw the curtains to close but I say A E That the sun can still shine behind a closed mind C#m A And sticks and stones do hurt E When tossed from the tongue of mankind
