I'm livin' in a state of paralysis
Thinkin' I'm alive but I'm dead
Yes, I'm living in a state of paralysis
This mediocre life's gone to my head

Realisation, realisation

Pride, I've got plenty of it
Love, I really don't know what it means
But I'm certainly contented, never been ill fed
Oh no! got a comfy bed it's gone to my head

So I'm gettin' out o' this state of paralysis
I've really come to realise at last
That I'm living in a state of paralysis
My manifestation is gonna last

Realisation, realisation

There's too many others think we know it all
And not enough of us think ahead
And what we don't know ain't worth knowin' at all
There's too many of us really dead

So I'm gettin' out of this state of paralysis
I've really come to realise at last
That I'm livin' in a state of paralysis
My manifestation is gonna last

Realisation, realisation

Sympathy, I can give it
Consideration with it
Love, well I certainly found it
And I'm buildin' round it

I'm gettin' out o' this state of paralysis
I've really come to realise at last
That I'm living in a state of paralysis
My manifestation is gonna last

Well I'm gettin' out o' this state of paralysis
I've really come to realise at last
That I'm living in a state of paralysis
My manifestation is gonna last
