Prompt / Lyrics
(Verse 1 – Spoken/sung with urgency, rhythmic phrasing) Woke up sunshine cutting through the grime The message you left said “Don’t waste more time.” But my head’s a riot, spinning like a loaded wheel, Every step I try to take gets swallowed by the steel. I see the future—gold and clean, Then I look down and I freeze in the machine. It’s a paradox dressed in lace and blood, I’m built to run, but I’m stuck in the flood. **(Pre-Chorus)** They said love would break the chains, But it’s velvet cuffs and quiet pain. I need to scream, I need to move— But your voice says, “Let it soothe.” **(Chorus)** I’m Paralyzed BY LOVE! You’re the antidote that kills the spark! I’m a statue screaming through the glass, While the world keeps spinning past! I’m Paralyzed BY LOVE! A shock dressed up in grace! You stole my rebel pulse When you touched my face! Let me fall, let me break apart— I’m frozen by the feeling That’s tearing out my heart! **(Verse 2)** I wear the chains, I walk the street, I’m supposed to be the one they can’t defeat. But you walk in, and the chaos fades— I trade my war paint for a masquerade. I used to spit fire, now I choke on charm, Like a safety pin stitched into my arm. I crave the wreckage, I need the sting— But you hum a lullaby and clip my wings. **(Pre-Chorus)** They said love would break the chains, But it’s velvet cuffs and quiet pain. I need to scream, I need to move— But your voice says, “Let it soothe.” **(Chorus)** I’m Paralyzed BY LOVE! You’re the antidote that kills the spark! I’m a statue screaming through the glass, While the world keeps spinning past! I’m Paralyzed BY LOVE! A shock dressed up in grace! You stole my rebel pulse When you touched my face! Let me fall, let me break apart— I’m frozen by the feeling That’s tearing out my heart! **(Bridge – Tempo drops, bass-driven, vocals spoken/screamed)** Get out of my head. Get out of my way. You made a pacifist from a fist just yesterday. I need to riot. I need to bleed. But your face keeps haunting every need. LOVE is a weapon. LOVE is a trick. It makes the dangerous feel sick. SICK. **(Guitar solo)** [Final Chorus] I’m Paralyzed BY LOVE! You’re the antidote that kills the spark! I’m a statue screaming through the glass, While the world keeps spinning past! I’m Paralyzed BY LOVE! A shock dressed up in grace! You stole my rebel pulse When you touched my face! Let me fall, let me break apart— I’m frozen by the feeling That’s tearing out my heart! **(Outro – Drums stagger, guitar fades into feedback)** Paralyzed… By love… F-R-E-E-Z-E.
