Paper Jesus Songtext
von Staind

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 tell 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

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
