Help!
Sylar Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Help! Help! Help! Help!

My mind is tainted with
The memories that haunt my past (Help! Help!)
I try to make them go away
I think I'm going mad! (Help! Help!)

I dare you not to close your eyes
Until you've caught a glimpse inside

You will never understand
Would you save me, save me
Please? so I won't forget

Help! Help! Help! Help!

At night I wish my mind would shut
Along with my eyes
Cause maybe then I could escape
Fucking torture for once
Make it go away
Make it go away
Make it go the fuck away

I dare you not to close your eyes
Until you've caught a glimpse inside

You will never understand
Would you save me, save me
Please? so I won't forget
Nothing is ever easy so I go in circles
Only asking for the simple things
You will never understand

I can't handle what's real
Instead I lie again
That moment feels so good
But when it's done I'm so afraid
I tried to spill my guts
Declared me nuts until the end
Remember, when I'm done
My soul was just crying for HELP

Make it go away
Make it go away
Make it go the fuck away
I dare you not to close your eyes
Motherfucker, 'til you've caught a glimpse inside

You will never understand
Would you save me, save me
Please? so I won't forget
Nothing is ever easy so I go in circles
Only asking for the simple things
You will never understand





Help! Help! Help! Help!
