Helen

Living in her bottle
Can't deny that she's inviting me
To come and watch her model
For the riots, the inciting has begun
It's on the wall i just can't see the writing
A thousand ships for her
Sometimes i think that it's unlawful that i love her
And the things i can't express
Send me trying to discover
How to make you understand
That i'm the one and there's no other
Well i know it's time we took the chance
And i know it's time to start this romance
Our love will be intense i know
So don't try to even tell me that i don't
'cause i know
That it's time you start pretending and watch the show.
Oh girl now, you, you should go
Before your pretty world falls apart and you're alone
Now running from decisions
Never been my kind of game
I won't be, beaten by division
I have made my stand; i'll call your name
You are a vision
It's just not the same, no, a thousand ships for her
Love's the kind of thing you've got to take where you can find it
Girl, you've got all the excuses, but i'm not here to be blinded
No i won't give up, i think it's 'cause i'm just too single minded
Well i know that i can't stop this fight
But i know that i can make it all right
We're gonna start tonight i know so
Don't try to even tell me that we won't
Oh baby 'cause i, yes i, know
Your walls are tumbling down i told you so (yes i did)
You, oh you, you should show (you should show)
That you realize you don't have to be alone, oh no, oh no,
And i know, i know, yes i know
Hey there pretty girl standing in the fire waiting for the rain
Can't you see the coming clouds carry no promise for the end of your pain
I will take you, where the fire never can go.
And we will make it baby i know, yes i know, oh i know…come on kick it
I-- i know
It's time you stop pretending to watch the show
You, oh you should go
Before your pretty world falls apart and you're all alone
I---- know (i, i, i know)
Your walls are tumbling down, well i, i told you so (i told you so)
Now you, oh you, you should show me(you should show)
That you realize you don't have to be alone, oh no, oh no,
And i know.
