| Faint The : Ballad Of The Paralysed Citizen |
I'm paralysed and things could
change for you as well
you're not so bad off now,
you can move anything you need.
I'm not this way because of an
emergency I caused.
At seventeen I was a guard perched
above the chlorine floor.
when I saw a hand raise up
from just beneath the air,
a frantic move for help,
I made an instant judgment call.
To dive- I arced my feet to dive,
I broke the elemental line to save a child.
Dive- into the shallow floor
the bottom scraped my palms
and compressed my spine.
Now i'm paralysed while they just
move to make amends
the family and the kid
who faked the drowning incident,
I've felt the hand of god and that's
the last thing that I felt.
And all below my back,
I've lost the faith I thought I had.
To dive- I arced my feet to dive,
I broke the elemental line to save a child.
Dive- into the shallow floor
the bottom scraped my palms
and compressed my spine.
