The Staves - Paralysed

I'm going out 'cause I need to
And you're staying in because you can
And you're the man
Locked out, stuck on Lyndale
I miss the island
Where I speak, they understand

And I know, it's a waste of time
And I know, you are yours, not mine
And I know, I'm being left behind

But I'm paralysed, paralysed
Sore, for the longing
The belonging
It isn't fair, why don't you care
What a thing it is, just to bore yourself
To ignore yourself and pretend

And I know, it's a waste of time
And I know, you are yours, not mine
And I know, I'm being left behind
But I'm paralysed
And I know

Don't snuff me out
I used to be magic
I used to be rage
Uncontained
I used to be something you made and admired
I used to be fire
I used to be magic

And now I know, it's a waste of time
And I know, you are yours not mine
And I know, I'm being left behind
But I'm paralysed
Oh I'm paralysed
I'm paralysed
Ooh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
