Well, I've been trying
To say the things I mean
And see beneath my skin
It's easy said
It would be lying
To come on all serene
The way I've never been
Don't be misled
Help me, help me
You got to help me and keep me where I'll never stray
Help me, help me
You got to help me, or I'm not gonna last a day
I thought I had it
I opened up my hand
To see just what I'd caught
It swam away
Well, I've been at it
And doing all I can
But that don't mean a lot
Days like today
Help me, help me
You got to help me and keep me where I'll never stray
Help me, help me
You got to help me, or I'm not gonna last a day
And you could make it right
Turn the grey sky clear
If you could just be near me
Well, I've been trying
To hold the world in place
Help me, help me
You got to help me and keep me where I'll never stray
Help me, help me
You got to help me, or I'm not gonna last a day
