This Paralysis - Eagle-Eye Cherry

Nothing bitchy will ever leave my lips

And this tingle in my fingertips

Isn’t really

A heart attack

Man on the curb

Breathing heavily

And the fear now

That is eating me Isn’t really

From a heart attack

And this paralysis

Needs no analysis

As I fall apart

At the seams

Feels like centuries

That you have played with me And in times like this

It escapes me Why you attack my lead balloon

With your hard attack

And this paralysis

Needs no analysis

As I fall apart

At the seams

From your knockout punch

That floored me with a crunch

To end my unbeaten run

On the scene

Wipe me off the floor

Cut the ground from under me You wore me like a frock

From a stupid fantasy

We pushed out of bounds

Kicked it from the ground

All 'cause the love we found

Was too tightly wound

I’m in the ocean

I can’t feel the ground

And approaching me Without a sound

Is a thing with attitude

Like a shark attack

And this paralysis

Needs no analysis

As I fall apart

At the seams

From your knockout punch

That floored me with a crunch

To end my unbeaten run

On the scene
