Paralyzed

from Limbo Cage by David Bays

/

lyrics

Speak
I swear to speak
But the peas in the pods won’t let me in
And there’s nothing I can say to break the skin
And oh god
they caught my eye
Staring into something elevated high
By shine, and polish, and flair OH MY
Would they even notice if i said goodbye

Oh I’m paralyzed
Stuck inside
My mind is fried
And now I can’t escape
Told myself I’d never break again
But here I am…

Dance
I swear I want to dance
But my feet are glued to the frozen floor
While the pretty little people all rip and roar
And oh god
I just tried
To move my body but the muscles tied
I’m sweating, seizing, petrified
I never could choose between fight or flight

Cuz’ I’m paralyzed
Stuck inside
My mind is fried
And now I can’t escape
Told myself I’ll never break again
But here I am…

Next time
Next time
NEX TIME
OH GOD!!!!!

Sleep
No I can’t get no sleep
Cuz’ every twist and turn that I could’ve made
Are tangling, choking inside my brain
And oh god
I recreate
All the little things I wish I would have said
HeLlO! HoW aRe YoU? wHaT’s YoUr NaMe?
This whole damn time I’ve been in my own way

Cuz I paralyze
Stuck inside
I try and try
But I just can’t escape
Tell myself I’ll never break again
Oh but here I am…

OKAY!
Hi… :)))))
