In 2010, Channel Zero made a widely noted comeback. At the request of fans, they played six reunion concerts in Brussels which quickly sold-out. They also released a new single. They are also scheduled to play at Graspop Metal Meeting (Dessel). In January 2010, Channel Zero features a slightly different line-up: Mikey Doling (ex-Soulfly, ex-SNOT) replaces Xavier Carion on lead guitar, since the latter suffers from ear damage.
Help
Channel Zero Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Help no one else can cry for me
Help what is going wrong with me
Help, help
Help why can no one ever see
Help that fate has left a scar on me
Hell I'm looking for some light relief
Help faith don't mean a thing to me
Help walking down a dead end street
Help time has got me on my knees
Help, help
Well listen up you friends of mine
Tell me what I have to leave behind
Hell I'm hanging by a thread, so fine
Help, help
Help faith don't mean a thing to me
Help walking down a dead end street
Help time has got me on my knees
Help, help
For those who care
For those who love
Seek no sense don't try to understand
Cause if you do
You'll feel the pain
Inside your heart, never to explain
The lyrics of Channel Zero's song Help express a deep sense of desperation and inner turmoil. The repetition of the word "help" throughout the song is a plea for someone to step in and offer assistance or guidance. The singer feels like they are being attacked by strangers and nobody else can understand or empathize with their suffering. They believe that fate has dealt them a painful scar and they are desperately seeking relief. The singer is also grappling with existential questions such as the meaning of faith, the path they are on, and the role that time plays in shaping their life.
The lyrics suggest that the singer is in a state of crisis and doesn't know how to move forward. They are looking to their friends for guidance and wisdom but also acknowledge that they are hanging by a thread. The final stanza addresses the audience directly, urging them not to seek understanding because it will only bring pain. These lyrics reflect the pain and frustration that can come from feeling lost and alone.
