Paralyzed By Light

she don't wanna open her eyes
she don't wanna open her heart
she don't wanna get out of bed
cause life pierces her like a dart

she feels like she's trapped alone
in a small stuffy empty elevator
that's supposed to be going down
and she can only dream of later

she only wants a tv and a couch
and someone to watch a movie with
curtains closed even at 9 oclock
and no fatigue not even a little bit

but dawn comes and she's claustrophobic
she cannot breathe until the night
can't walk or talk or function at all
frozen still she's paralyzed by light

she can't look out the window
during the hours of the day
she cannot move, she is paralyzed
until the sunlight goes away

she can't stand up straight because
she is averse to the air and heat
she cannot move, she is paralyzed
until the sunlight is beneath her feet

she is burned out on life
paralyzed by light

    thats me
    but ther eis no light here
    You ask me to enter
    But then You make me crawl
    And I can't be holding on
    To what You got
    When all You've got is hurt
    ----
    Underneath this smile lies everything
    All my hopes and anger, pride and shame
