Helpless

The air is warm

I hear the wind and the trees

I know I'm there, but I'll never be

The wind is soft tonight, the tide is low

And I know the way

(I never felt better now)

Sometimes life, it moves too slow

Slows to a crawl, and then the poetry is lost

And without speed, hope becomes certainty

And for once I'm certain

(I never felt better now)

A garden is its own perfect world

Where everything has a place

Every leaf, every stone, every speck of dirt

But where's my place?

I even tried to get arrested today

But everyone looked the other way

I count the hours, and I count the days

But for once I'm certain

Don't want your help

Don't need your help

Don't want your help

Don't need your help

Helpless

You found a way to make me say

Help me please someone

The water's clear

I see that it's full of dimes

For every wish, I wonder why

Why all I want is something beautiful

A place to rest

(I never felt better now)
