Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You pulled me from my darkest side
Alone
Seeing you maybe something
But losing you may be a curse on me
If you can't find some hidden meanings
Then I'll show you what it means to be
I know it's hard to stop pretending
And you may feel a little tired
And I'll show you all of the world
You don't have to make me feel so helpless
You don't even need to feel alone
To feel alone
If you can't stop, just stop pretending
We just need those kinds of things to go
Those things to go
You don't have to waste yourself no
It's my turn to give you some clarity
I'll show you some of the beginnings
That may give you some perfect meanings
So don't give up, and take my hand
You don't have to make me feel so helpless
You don't even need to feel alone
To feel alone
If you can't stop, just stop pretending
We just need those kinds of things to go
Those things to go
You don't have to make me feel so helpless
You don't even need to feel alone
To feel alone
If you can't stop, just stop pretending
We just need those kinds of things to go
Those things to go
The lyrics to "Helpless" by fraNcis. convey a sense of vulnerability and dependence on someone else in order to find meaning and purpose in life.
