Paralyzed
Posted by BoogyVamp on Saturday, June 20, 2015
Why do I let you beat me down with your words
It's the same cycle time after time
Why do I continue to listen until it hurts
I strive and strive but fall every time I climb
I know I'm not weak but I crawl beneath your breath
My heart beats its pain as you continue to drain
I just need a little bit of rest
I'm so damn tired of smiling through the pain
Oh but oh how your breath lingers curses at my skin
Oh but oh it makes me paralyzed
Paralyzed within
Oh but oh how your words bruise my soul
Oh but oh it makes me paralyzed
Paralyzed within
Why do I let you in
Why do you look at me as if I'm an unwanted sin
Like I'm the hopeless burden who doesn't belong
You smile when my tears fall as I lower my chin
Sometimes I feel like my heart beating is all wrong
Sometimes I'm strong enough to walk away
But then your voice echoes until my limbs give
What you do to me all I wanna do is fade
Is this heart of mine really beating to live
I know I'm not weak but I crawl beneath your breath
My heart beats its pain as you continue to drain
I just need a little bit of rest
I'm so damn tired of smiling through the pain
Oh but oh how your breath lingers curses at my skin
Oh but oh it makes me paralyzed
Paralyzed within
Oh but oh how your words bruise my soul
Oh but oh it makes me paralyzed
Paralyzed within
Why do I let you in
I run but you seem to find me every time
Are my tears a radar leading you to chain me
Like a poison your whisper haunts me every time
Killing me slowly I don't think I'll ever be free
The chains of hate keep me paralyzed
The locks of pain feels like it's finalized
Oh but oh it makes me paralyzed
Oh but oh it makes me paralyzed
Oh but oh it makes me paralyzed
Paralyzed paralyzed paralyzed paralyzed
How your breath
How your breath
Paralyzed oh
Why do I let you in
I know I'm not weak but I crawl beneath your breath
My heart beats its pain as you continue to drain
I just need a little bit of rest
I'm so damn tired of smiling through the pain
Oh but oh how your breath lingers curses at my skin
Oh but oh it makes me paralyzed
Paralyzed within
Oh but oh how your words bruise my soul
Oh but oh it makes me paralyzed
Paralyzed within
Why do I let you in
Why do I let you in
Why do I let you in
Let you in
