Paralyzed

(Verse)

How can I be the way I need to be

Always struggling with you- and I won’t pretend

I can’t live and I can’t die

I pray this torture soon will end

(Chorus)

I’m Paralyzed- I can’t feel any happiness inside my heart

Paralyzed- I can barely breathe

Paralyzed- all I feel is the cold numbness that grips my soul

Paralyzed- please, you’ve got to set me free

(Verse)

Why do you put me down when I’m doing my best

To make it right for you and me?

It hurts to think I’m only second string

With you, that’s all I’ll ever be

(Chorus)

(Verse)

When I’m up, you’re down. When I’m down, you’re up

We never can agree

The things I love, you won’t accept

Your way, it’s always got to be

My fingers shake, my bones- they freeze

A fault in me I fear you’ll see

You say you teach for my own good

But all I learn is: to hate me

(Chorus)

I’m Paralyzed- I can’t feel any happiness inside my heart

Paralyzed- I can barely breathe

Paralyzed- all I feel is the cold numbness that grips my soul

Now, you’ve got to set me free

(repeat first verse)
