Can't Keep Helping Myself
I feel like I’m trapped in a room with no way to get out
I wish that I had someone to talk to to help me figure it out
I wish there was a way to escape the mess that I have been caught in
But every time I try to run I end up falling deeper in
I feel like all my troubles have joined as a force waiting to attack
I wish that there was somebody else to help me fight them back
Because I can’t keep helping myself while I’m busy helping you
It would be awfully nice if for once you helped me too
How am I supposed to believe that my troubles will melt away?
As long as you are here my troubles won’t go away
Now do you see what I mean the reason for wanting you to leave?
It’s hard for me to say but I’ve just got to come clean
I wish there was a way to escape the mess that I have been caught in
But every time I try to run I end up falling deeper in
It’s not that I don’t care about you I really care too much
And as long as you are here how am I supposed to get things done?
Because I can’t keep helping myself while I’m busy helping you
It would be awfully nice if for once you helped me too
How am I supposed to believe that my troubles will melt away?
As long as you are here my troubles won’t go away
I wish that you knew all the things I’m going through
But instead you're busy watching me help you
I’ve tried to balance all our problems to help us both
But every time I try to do that well I don’t
I end up only fixing your’s and pushing mine aside
Now all of my troubles have all piled up reached the sky
I only hope that you're not hurt and that you understand
I've really tried to help us both I've done everything I can
But I can’t keep helping myself while I’m busy helping you
It would be awfully nice if for once you helped me too
How am I supposed to believe that my troubles will melt away?
As long as you are here my troubles won’t go away
I can’t keep helping myself while I’m busy helping you
It would be awfully nice if for once you helped me too
How am I supposed to believe that my troubles will melt away?
As long as you are here my troubles won’t go away
So why don't you try helping yourself today?
