Paralyzed

[verse 1:] If I lose my grip and fade to black I can't guarantee I'm coming back But through all of this pain I still fight to breathe for you [pre-chorus: drill and bass snare rolls building tension with cello] Lately, I've been fighting off the ocean Trying to survive the cold emotion All I know is I remain frozen Standing in the storm to keep control [verse 2] Be sensual and numb, I've had enough I admit the fight is getting tough I can fake a smile when times get rough I am hollowed out and scarred so ### (so deep) [bridge] Holding back the darkness in the dark Wondering how I survived this far This far (This far) [Chorus] And I can stay numb now, way too damn numb now I can stay numb now, fighting to stay alive till I come down I can stay numb now, losing my ground now I know I have (ah) to survive to stay sound [verse 3] Silent when the pressure starts to drop (Yeah) Quiet 'cause my heart has almost stopped And silent 'cause I'm tired of the noise [verse 4] Call it what you want, I'm feeling helpless (Helpless) Enduring all the pain inside this madness (Madness) Trying to exist and keep my grip [pre-chorus] Sensual and numb, I've had enough I admit the fight is getting tough I can fake a smile when times get rough Standing in the storm to be in control (keep control) [bridge] Holding back the darkness in the dark Wondering how I survived this far (This far) (This far) [Chorus] And I can stay numb now, way too damn numb now I can stay numb now, fighting to stay alive till I come down I can stay numb now, losing my ground now I know I have (ah) to survive to stay sound [Outro] Hmmm, hmmm, ahh-haa [End]
