Paralyzed

歌詞

(Rosanne Cash) I picked up the phone, you were both on the line Your words to each other froze me in time A lifetime between us just burnt on the wires Dissolved in a dial tone, consumed in your fires Your footsteps beside me, the phone in my hand I can't move I can't stand Our faces in pieces, facades on the floor The pretense between us for a moment destroyed I don't want to go on with these words in my heart But the ghost of your anger will tear us apart How my little world just went up in smoke I'm too young I'm too old One day soon I'll know One day soon I'll just let it go I run from the bedroom with legs paralyzed I carve out my future part prophet, part blind It's nobody's business, no one is to blame We'll meet in the distance, new numbers new names I've lifted the veil, I've walked through the fire I'll move on I'll go higher
