Young The Giant - Paralysis Lyrics

How I feel after a breakup...

One of my biggest inspirations. This is my favorite song from YTG 🥺

This has such a Radiohead-esc sound. Paired with that unique YtG style, It's perfect and might be the best song they've ever done

So authentic,homey , and just beautiful

How is this recorded! Sounds so good

Lyrics

Paralyzed, on the floor again
Lately I've been fiending

'Cause it's over I'm stupid
Living a lie on my own, so alone
You're calling consistently
But I'm paralyzed on the floor
Far from you

And lately I've been thinking
I'm not feeling anything at all
Will I survive in the dead of night?
And now the lights are fading faster
Save me from my disaster
My disaster

Lay the lights down low!
'God only knows I give up to the fire
You didn't always come up from the water!
I only thought you were crying from laughter
Saving myself from the mouth of a monster
Paralyzed on the floor again!
Baby I've been fiending

And lately I've been thinking
I'm not feeling anything at all
Will I survive in the dead of night?
And now the lights are fading faster
Save me from my disaster
My disaster!

Paralyzed on the floor

And lately I've been feeling
I'm not thinking anything at all
Will I survive in the dead of night?
And now the lights are fading faster
Save me from my disaster
My disaster!

'God only knows I give up to the fire
You didn't always come up from the water!
I only thought you were crying from laughter
Saving myself from the mouth of a monster

'God only knows I give up to the fire
You didn't always come up from the water!
I only thought you were crying from laughter
Saving myself from the mouth of a monster

I LOVE YOU

published on my bday :D

Would anyone know where Sameer got that jacket?

"Somevere a transient is shivering in the cold."
-pysch

Jk. I think his jacket is cool, but it does at first glance look like a thrift store 80s windbreaker with it's colors.

Can you get this on iTunes?

Young The Giant: 5 man beard band who make amazingly awesome In the Open sessions! Very creative & so well done everytime 👏👏😍

So did he overdose?

Whenever I go to Joshua Tree I like to fantasize that I'll run into them just chillin and doing an In The Open session.

Jesus CHRIST Sameer

His lips<3

I just love how they end the song. I've fallen in love with this group all over again!

very cool!

Very nice 👌🏼

YTG is one of the few bands I'm into that can give a kick ass live performance that actually is kinda like a separate entity from the album edition. Also really pumped for the next album. :D

Love you guys so much. Can't wait to see you at MSU

please do one for in my home and garrands please!!!!

Who the hell disliked this?

Probably the most underrated band of all time :(

astonishing

every fucking time

you touch my soul like it's a soft blanket

Los amo <3

his jacket ugh his voice ugh young the giant ugh

Fucking great. Saw you guys in Reno. Amazing. Come to Sac or Vegas and do an acoustic show!

Camera next please?

The one person who disliked this must have ear paralysis because this song is just too gorgeous to dislike.

One month listening to this song non stop :)

Young the Giant! Bet you haven't been to the Philippines. We'd love to have you perform here--especially me! :D

Heals my pain.

♥God only knows I gave up to the fire♥

his voice is a dream to my heart and skin.....♡

I guess what i love about in the open its how raw it is, dont get me wrong, i liked the second album and everything.
But it became more about the sound effects, synth, and all this other stuff that felt like it was competing with the guys versus enhancing the sound.

best version ive ever heard.

I could listen to this drum beat all day! Francois is so chill tbh

Such an emotional song and Sameer makes it sound even more so. What a terrific chemistry these guys have. Never seen a band play in such harmony

YTG is love, YTG is life

These dude's music is dOpe

Any ideas if these guys are coming to Germany next year? Would be amazing to see them live

Love this, please do a session for Camera

I really want to see you guys perform I can never find you guys near California when I need you to be performing :(

I've been waiting for this for ages ! 😍😍

These In The Open sessions are fucking incredible. Cannot wait to see YTG live.

Joshua Tree looks like such an amazing place to play some live music and just hang out in general.....

I wish i had good hair days like Payam does eryday. Man, he's blessed

Wish I had a beard like his ;_;

Is that a lemon shaker though?

Come back to Brasil!!!!!

omg I love this band ♡♡ come to Colorado please ♡♡

love this song so much!!!

*patiently waits for them to go back on tour*

I can't wait for this Thursday. I'm really hoping it's gonna be Camera. Then I can lock myself in my room and put it on repeat and cry from happiness.

4 years later and I still feel like I did when I heard them for the first time 💖

the best song of the album!! YTG is coming!!!

LOVE IT. I've never heard a bad young the giant song.

This sounds so amazing ahhh

I love this song, so beautiful. My second favorite song from the album right after Camera.

in the open of camera would be the best. Even sameer said on Reddit ama that camera is his favorite song to perform live

Come to Guadalajara, México please!!

muy lindo

they come to the city on nov 15 😀😀😀

Why aren't they a worldwide sensation while other artists with auto tune make it to the top :(

I hope not, I would like to actually afford going to their concerts : )

John Lennon anyone?

💖💖💖

this is so sick even better than the album version. makes me so freaking excited to think what u gonna bring to the table with album no3. \●/

It's not In the Open if there's no maraca!

Very good !!!

this is perfect 😭 I'd say this is the best one yet

please release these in the open tracks! so good but so different from the originals, I'd love to be able to buy them

This band is my life

I can't decide which in the open I love the most! :D <3

Amazing, one of their best in the open sessions.

I got paralyzed by Young the Giant

Go see a doctor

Any follow-up? Are you still paralyzed. Any movement? Can you move you eyes from side to side?

I'm calling it now. They will announce the release of a new album new week on 10/22

I love them

You guys are so freaking talented. I mean seriously; how do you make these majestic songs? Hats off!

I live in L.A and I really want to see Young the Giant.. Waiting for you guys to head back down here! You guys are inspirational! Thank you for everything!
