I Need Help

What's life?

I'm a hollow shell

That cannot talk to you at night

Wish that I had you on tape

I don't remember what it's like

Hard times baby, I need help

I don't think my stars align

In bad times, I don't think I'll make it out

When you raise your voice

you're tearing out my spine

I've got a heart half full, but I still I spill

The same way I spill my red wine

But in a moment you slip

And put your lip upon my lip

I won't sue you

I'll be real with you

Hard times baby I need you

I don't speak aloud I only text

Your friend said that would be alright

I wade through phases I cannot express

You hear me talk in complicated rhyme

And so I just stay here planning my next step

Wait home and pace rooms

This is every night

Is it the way you react?

I place my hand upon your back

I'll be real with you

This is a crisis

You choose not to see it

I went away because away's what I needed

This is not treason but sometimes it feels it

Sometimes you lie and you lie for no reason

I'd say you'd stay but can't honestly mean it

I am in pain and I keep it a secret

Hard times baby I need help...

Hard times baby I need help... (I need help...)

It's not the words that I lack

It's how your eyes look like a cat's

I can't get through to you
