Paralysed

[Verse 1]

I see the signs

The outlines

Shapes of something that is waiting for us

Flashes of light

Like a burning in the back of my mind


[Verse 2]

Can I get a shock to wake me?

So many directions spin me round

Hear the sound

Like a burning in the back of my mind


[Pre-Chorus 1]

Close your eyes and we’ll be alright


[Chorus]

God help me now

Cause there’s a voice that’s screaming hell behind the door

So sick inside

I’m fighting but I feel paralysed


[Verse 3]

I hear the hush

Feel the rush

Like we’re stepping into total darkness

Something’s not right

But it’s too late to go back, restart this


[Verse 4]

Can I get a pill to fix me?

Every time the sickness sucks me in

I give in

Cause it gets so hard to keep on fighting


[Pre-Chorus 1]

Close your eyes and we’ll be alright


[Chorus]

God help me now

Cause there’s a voice that’s screaming hell behind the door

So sick inside

I’m fighting but I feel paralysed


[Post-Chorus]

So scared to lose

Cause we’re running out of sweet time we’ve got to move

Don’t wanna die

Fighting paralysed


[Bridge]

Am I sick? Am I blind? Am I insane?

I can’t explain this emptiness inside my brain

Trapped inside a prison of my fucking pride

Look in my eyes, I’m p-p-p-p-paralysed

When I get what I want, what I think will help to stop the urge to retch

To get me off this ledge

To get me off this ledge

Take a breath --

We’re dangerously close to the edge


[Pre-Chorus 2]

God help me now

Cause there’s a voice that’s screaming…


[Chorus]

God help me now

Cause there’s a voice that’s screaming hell behind the door

So sick inside

I’m fighting but I feel paralysed
