[Lyric] Paradox (Lady Dan)

You called me underrated
Said you could look at me forever
I believed in you, somehow
Only time would tell
How long we could be together
My threshold’s so much smaller now
And of course, I want to be loved
And I’m not a fan of giving up
I just need convincing
A paradox, a woman of stone
To want to be loved and left alone
I am blindingly cold and numb
I am too hot for my tongue
A young doll of twenty-five
You said I got years to live my life
Play the field, or settle down
Keep consideration
What I do with time is mine
I could squander it all just to let you down
Each day I wonder why I live here anymore
Each day I wonder what I’m working toward
I just need convincing
A paradox, a woman of stone
To want to be loved and left alone
I am blindingly cold and numb
I am too hot for my tongue
I felt suffocated so
I went back to Alabama
God is laughing at me now
Green fields and blue skies
I could be alone forever
Sweet evil, I’ll make you a vow
And I just don’t sleep much at all, these days
It’s like I’m waiting up to hear someone say
“The truth doesn’t need convincing.”
A paradox, a woman of stone
To want to be loved and left alone
I am blindingly cold and numb
I am too hot for my tongue
A paradox, a woman of stone
To want to be loved and left alone
I am blindingly cold and numb
I am too hot for my tongue
