Paralyzed Lyrics by ALESTI

Voices - EP

2020

[Intro]
Why did I have to be this way
Hiding in shadows I create
Getting crushed beneath their weight
On my own

[Verse 1]
Can't you hear my heart
Rip it out and pick it apart
'Cause something hasn't felt quite right
From the start

[Pre-Chorus 1]
All these voices inside
Who are they to decide that I'm reaching out in vain
Though I'd rather feel nothing at all
Than this pain

[Chorus]
Why did I have to be this way
Hiding in shadows I create
Getting crushed beneath their weight
I'm paralyzed and it's killing me
I only wish to be okay
I feel them stare but thеy will never see
(I'm all alone)

[Verse 2]
Can you feel thе heat
I'll surrender before my defeat
I guess, I've run my course and now I'm
Obsolete

[Pre-Chorus 2]
All these voices inside
Who are they to decide that I'm reaching out in vain
Through this empty shell
Is everything (that remains)

[Chorus]
Why did I have to be this way
Hiding in shadows I create
Getting crushed beneath their weight
(On my own)
I'm paralyzed and it's killing me
I only wish to be okay
I feel them stare but they will never see
(I'm all alone)

[Bridge]
I see my shape as I'm fading away
Just a stain on the wall
Just a name to decay
I'm tired of playing someone else's part
Just to feel again, feel again
I see my shape as I'm fading away
And I'm tired of playing someone else's part

Is it all in my head?
Is it all in my head?
Is there hope of redemption?
Is it all in my head?
Is it all in my head?
I think, I'm starting to see
Is it all in my head?
Is it all in my head?
Is this just a perception?
Help me feel again
(Help me go)

[Chorus]
Why did I have to be this way
Hiding in shadows I create
Getting crushed beneath their weight
(On my own)
I'm paralyzed and it's killing me
I only wish to be okay
I feel them stare but they will never see
I'm all alone
(I'm all alone)
I'm all alone
