[Verse 1]
I'm going out ‘cause I need to
And you're staying in because you can and you're the man
And I'm locked out, stuck on Glendale
I miss the island
When I speak, they understand

[Bridge]
And I know it's a waste of time
And I know you are yours, not mine
And I know I'm being left behind

[Chorus]
But I'm paralysed, paralysed
Sore for the longing, the belonging
It isn't fair, why don't you care?
What a thing it is, just a boy yourself
To ignore yourself and pretend

[Bridge]
And I know it's a waste of time
And I know you are yours, not mine
And I know I'm being left behind
But I'm paralysed
And I know

[Verse 2]
Don't snuff me out
I usеd to be magic
I used to be ragе uncontained
I used to be something you made
And in my life, I used to be fine, yeah
I used to be magic

[Bridge]
And now I know it's a waste of time
And I know you are yours, not mine
And I know I'm being left behind

[Chorus]
But I'm paralysed
Oh, I'm paralysed
I'm paralysed (Oh)
(Ooh, ooh)
