Staind - Paper Jesus Lyrics

Staind Lyrics

"Paper Jesus"

You take this all for granted
All the things they choose to feed you
By keeping you distracted
Just long enough to bleed you dry

A reason for your anger
It's what I need, it's what I need
To recognize the truth
It's what I need, it's what I need
So burn your paper Jesus
It's what I need, it's what I need
And own the things you do
It's what I need, it's what I need

Question what they sell you
All the lies that they are teaching
And they've made a corporation
Out of desperate people's feelings of fear

A reason for your anger
It's what I need, it's what I need
To recognize the truth
It's what I need, it's what I need
So burn your paper Jesus
It's what I need, it's what I need
And own the things you do
It's what I need, it's what I need

Somebody chose these words for you
Interpretations of the truth
Somewhere behind your fear they hide
To fill the holes inside
