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
