Helena Beat lyrics

Sometimes life, it takes you by the hair

Pulls you down before you know it

It's gone and you're dead again

I've been in places and I won't pretend

That I'd make it out just to fall on my head

Wake up strange and take the walk downstairs

Hit the pawn up on the corner and pay for my

rent

You know that I could not believe my own truth

To show 'em what I'll choose, got nothing to

lose, oh

Yeah, yeah, and it's okay

I tie my hands up to the chair so I don't fall that

way

Yeah, yeah, and I'm alright

I took a sip of something poison but I'll hold on

tight

You know those days when you wanna just

choose

To not get out of bed, you're lost in your head

again

You play the game, but you're gonna cut

'Cause you're coming down hard, your joints

are all stuck

I tried to say that it's not the only way

I never knew if I could face myself to change

You were pacing, I was insecure

Slip and fall, I'm dodging calls of the prison

I've been living in

Yeah, yeah, and it's okay

I tie my hands up to the chair so I don't fall that

way

Yeah, yeah, and I'm alright

I took a sip of something poison but I'll hold on

tight

Yeah, yeah, and it's okay

I tie my hands up to the chair so I don't fall that

way

Yeah, yeah, and I'm alright

I took a sip of something poison, sip of

something poison, poison

Yeah, yeah, and it's okay

I tie my hands up to the chair so I don't fall that

way

Yeah, yeah, and I'm alright

I took a sip of something poison but I'll hold on

tight

Yeah, yeah, and it's okay

I tie my hands up to the chair so I don't fall that

way

Yeah, yeah, and I'm alright

I took a sip of something poison, sip of

something poison, poison
