I Really Want To Help You

I Really Want To Help You - Cuff The Duke

Broken glass lines the streets and sparkles one by one

A beautiful distraction created by the sun

If only I could mould these thoughts to boney fists of rage

Instead I disregard them all and I try to act my age

I really want to help you let you feel free

But I haven't much hope left

And I'm saving it for me my friend

The stories that you tell me I already know

Eroding like the shorelines of Lake Ontario

It's true that if I walk away

I'll end up right here

The duct tape holds the water out

But does nothing for the fear

I really want to help you let you feel free

But I haven't much hope left

And I'm saving it for me

I really want to help you if only you could see

That I haven't much time left

I'm so so so so so so sorry

Instead of feeling guilty I'll tie the loose ends

To every word I say to you

I can only hope it mends

Soon these hours turn to days like all the years before

And everything accumulates that we chose to ignore

I really want to help you let you feel free

But I haven't much hope left

And I'm saving it for me

I really want to help you if only you could see

That I haven't much time left

I'm so so so so so sorry

I'm sorry
