Paralyzed

(album: Bridge Over Troubled Dreams - 2021)

Doctor paused this life
He told me, "You won't fly."
Canceled everything
"You need some time to heal
And it may take a year
Reset the clocks again."

Is this the way life goes?

Everyone is singing their love songs
Now can't seem to find my own tune
I've been on the inside for so long
If they knew the truth

All of my plans have been silenced over night
All that I know is paralyzed

To learn to speak again
Amongst the frustration
How do I begin?
See, I will find my voice
Rebirth's the only choice
Will someone lend me a little patience?

It's just the way life goes

Everyone is singing their love songs
And I can't seem to find my own tune
I've been on the inside for so long
If they knew the truth

All of my plans have been silenced over night
All that I know is paralyzed
Is paralyzed

Is this the way that life goes?
It's just the way that life goes

A little time
A little hope
With a little light you'll never know
For a little space
For a lot of love
Close your eyes and think of
Better time, big dreams
Open your mind for you to find
A little strength inside
Stop and rewind
Just stop and rewind
Stop and rewind
With a little strength inside
Stop and rewind

Everyone is singing this love song
And I feel like I found my own tune
I was on the inside for so long
Now they know the truth

See, all of my plans, they were silenced over night
All that I know was paralyzed

(Everyone is singing this love song)
(And I feel like I found my own tune)
Was paralyzed
(I've been on the inside for so long)
(If they knew the truth)

With a little time
With a little hope
With a little light you'll never know
With a little strength inside
Stop and rewind
