Helpless Lyrics

Drunk and stumbling

Along a sidewalk, alone

I left my friends' house to call you

But I know you're not home

God only knows the twisted words

Left on your breath

An apology worth shit

And a cheap pack of cigarettes

I guess I'll end up alone

Let the vindictive overthinking take control

I'll toss and turn as you haunt my head

And reminisce in the memory

Of an unmade, crowded bed

Must've blacked out again

And it's only a quarter after nine

The courage burns as I go blind

Drowning you out of my mind

Trembling at the thought of saying

Everything all wrong

Worked up the nerve to leave a message

Even though you're long gone

I guess I'll sleep alone

And suffer in silence until my brain implodes

The blood, so bitter; the words, pretend

I'm reminiscing in a memory of a love

Better left for dead
