Paralytic

Paint the lines on perfect eyes that circle the object of
My sincere affection, my undivided attention
Lie where you won’t see yourself in that way
And we’ll ride to somewhere
All we are is paralyzed from the face down
We’re still alive with our fake smiles
When the camera’s away
Don’t remember this. No, don’t remember this
We are losing it all, but we are gaining the world with our hands tied
Your arms placed upon mine
And the sky looks so right, and you’re mine tonight
Lie where you won’t see yourself in that way
And we’ll ride…
All we are is paralyzed from the face down
We’re still alive with our fake smiles
When the camera’s away
