Led by Lanterns - Paralysis

(I wanna go to sleep, but I never will)
Oh I wanna take control of my body
But I don't know where to start
I'm wide awake
Coz a bad dream's never that far away
And I can't escape
The hell I'm in, hell I'm in, hell I'm in
Am I cursed or overtired?
Gets worse when I close my eyes
I've never been to church
But I'll pray this time
Demon of the night
Don't keep me paralyzed
I feel the devil's weight holding me down
I'm trying to speak
I need you to hear me now
I keep reaching out
I'm somewhere between
The real world and make believe
(I wanna go to sleep, but I never will)
I made a bad mistake
For letting myself drift far away
If I sin then heaven won't
Let me in, let me in, let me in
If I don't try and resist
I'll lie in the abyss and hope to die
So I can't give in
This is what it's like with my paralysis
I feel the devil's weight holding me down
I'm trying to speak
I need you to hear me now
I keep reaching out
I'm somewhere between
The real world and make believe
(I wanna go to sleep, but I never will)
I'm wide awake
Coz a bad dream is never that far away, no
And I can't escape the hell I'm in, no
I made a bad mistake
For letting myself drift far away, no
If I pray, will it end?
Will someone tell me will I break before then
(I wanna go to sleep, but I never will)
"Some people even describe hearing
Footsteps getting closer
Seeing intruders, demons or spirits
And feeling as if they are about to die"
I feel the devil's weight holding me down
I'm trying to speak
I need you to hear me now
I keep reaching out
I'm somewhere between
The real world and make believe
(Wanna go to sleep, but I never will)
I feel the devil's weight holding me down
I'm trying to speak
I need you to hear me now
I keep reaching out
I'm somewhere between
The real world and make believe
