Staind – Paper Jesus lyrics
You take yourself a prayer then
All the things they choose to feed you
By keeping you distracted
Just long enough to bleed you

[chorus]
A reason for your anger
Is what i need
Is what i need
To recognise the truth
Is what i need
Is what i need
So burn your paper jesus
Is what i need
Is what i need
And all the things you do
Is what i need
Is what i need

Question what they tell you
All the lies that they are teaching
Corporations
How the desperate peoples feeling

[chorus]

Somebody chose these words for you
Enter pretentions of the truth
Somewhere behind your feeling high
To fill the holes inside

[chorus]
