I Need Help
Nerv Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If you get your mind right
Head into the moonlight
I lost my way
One too many times
'Cause if you get your mind right
Things will be alright
I lost my way
One too many times

I've been going back and forth
Even more than before

Hanging on to something
Looking for help
Believing in nothing
When all else fails
Yeah, you think I'm bluffing
Oh, I need help
Believing in nothing
When all else fails

If you see me in the right light
Struggling to feel alive
I've lost my way
One too many times
'Cause if you get your mind right
It'll be alright
I've lost my way
One too many times

I've been going back and forth
(Back and forth, back and forth, back and forth)
I'vе been going back and forth
Even more than beforе

Hanging on to something
Looking for help
Believing in nothing
When all else fails
Yeah, you think I'm bluffing
Oh, I need help
Believing in nothing
When all else fails

Hanging on to something
Looking for help
Believing in nothing
When all else fails

Hanging on to something
Looking for help
Believing in nothing
When all else fails
Yeah, you think I'm bluffing
Oh, I need help




Believing in nothing
When all else fails
