Paragon

In the night when it's cold
And you're alone
I can feel your body turning in your sleep
And if I scream, will you hear me?
I cut every string that tied us together... Together

If I could go back, would it make us better?
I'm consumed in this remorse
I only have sorrow for us
But it's not enough - I can't change you
I can't change you

I am your paragon
You are my work of art
That hangs on my wall
I can't seem to decipher it
So maybe I'll try till I can't feel myself anymore
And I only see you
And I writhe in your madness

Why must this be so cruel?
A test of human endurance
And self-assurance that we're doing okay
And when your alter ego shows it's haunting face
I lose all trace of your love

If I could go back, would it make us better?
I'm consumed in this remorse
I only have sorrow for us
But it's not enough - I can't change you
I can't change you

I am your paragon
You are my work of art
That hangs on my wall
I can't seem to decipher it
So maybe I'll try till I can't feel myself anymore
And I only see you
And I writhe in your madness

I am your paragon
You are my work of art
That hangs on my wall
I can't seem to decipher it
So maybe I'll try till I can't feel myself anymore
And I only see you
And I writhe in your madness
