I love Paralysis. Sounds very artsy and indie. Almost a Saddle Creek feel to it. (I live in Omaha).
this is one of the coolest songs scott has ever written. cool cool vibe to it. i love it!

I think after work I'm going to attempt to write them down. I really think the song is about him and Mary's latest separation and how he ended up getting high, crashing cars and making mistakes.

"driving on the freeway, passing up the cars, scratched my car, gotta get high!"


And the part about how he tried to lead you through a minefield but instead lead you to a lover.



I liked Missing Cleveland a lot more than Paralysis at first, but now I think Paralysis is the better of the two.

that part reminded me of VR-superhuman, was that an accident or on purpose lol

"driving on the freeway, passing up the cars, scratched my car, gotta get high!"

Instead of "gotta get high", I think he says "gotta get out of here......"

The part about leading the protagonist to a lover is really disturbing. Did Mary cheat on him? Or is he actually referring to himself, as he often does in the second-person?

I'm pretty positive its "gotta get out of here......"

The slow verse parts in Paralysis really remind me of that Runaway Train song by Soul Asylum. It's got that same slow, melancholy feeling with the beat and the chords sound similar.

Thanks for ruining my day, Blue.

Anyone seen that video for Paralysis? I found it on Youtube today

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1Okzod6Nus

It's basically about Scott and that "actress" he's been hanging around with banging in a hotel room.

Is that the official video? I can't believe Paz is in the video. It ruins the whole thing.
