lyrics

Crumbling to dust inside the instant the point touches the paper
Lying in the weight of trying to create in somebodies favor
Passing through the loneliness of prompted scripts you're an entertainer
You want to live in torn out pages and speak missing lines
They have worn you down and thin enough to the point where they surround you
Desperately attempt to take control of the ones who defend you
Prey upon dependence of legalities that you may be bound to
You want to live in sold out stages
They want you to die

Ive been paralyzed
Hypnotized by your eyes

Slipping through the cracks
While the dialect retracts and compels you
To sit there like a dog and patiently you wait for someone to tell you
Everything you do and say can and will be used against you
And it hurts a little more each time you sign that line

Ive been paralyzed
Hypnotized by your eyes

You may mourn the loss of your dignity
But no one will help you
Riding on the backs of those who's lives are still in tact
How they hold you
You were merely more than just a soul that they sold and devalued
And it hurts a little more each time you hear that line

Ive been paralyzed
Hypnotized by your eyes
When I'm without you
I feel the weight of the world
