Heaven Help Me Now

(album: Gravitas - 2014)

Wing of angels
Waves of emotion
Bring her home to me

Stare down the cold blue muzzle of a steel blue gun
I guess this is the final stand, nowhere to run
Do I regret the past? Now I'm tied to the mast
Was I brave, did I live, have I won?

Do I regret a single thing that I had to say?
Self-centered pride and hubris tell me I'm okay
My check's post-dated now
I'm over-rated, overdrawn, and I'm still complicated

Oh, oh! Heaven help me now
I'm up against the wall again I know
Oh, oh! Please, please show me how
I'm in too deep, so Heaven help me now

The darkest night is on me, chills me to the bone
This is, by far, the hardest thing I've ever done
Bring things back down to size, keep eyes upon the prize
And pray, take a breath, and I say

Oh, oh! Heaven help me now
I'm up against the wall again I know
Oh, oh! Please, please show me how
I'm in too deep, so Heaven help me now

Oh, oh, Heaven help me now
I'm up against the wall again I know
Oh, oh, please, please show me how
I wanna leave, but there's nowhere to go
