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
