Paragon Lyrics
The last of our martyrs seeks no adoration
From his castle in the air of eternal vibration
We won’t lose sight of the lasting words he wrote
We won’t lose sight of what matters most

Now that he’s gone we’re going to miss him
Immortalised between the lines
Conceived by a human heart inside

See you on the other side
Of that open door
We won't lose sight
We won't lose sight
Of the lasting words he wrote
We won’t lose sight of what matters most
