helpless

I got rings on my my fingers

and blisters that bleed.

I’m pourin' sights and visions,

I can barely sleep.

and it ain’t no devil,

ain’t no saint. 

lord I’m drinking life 

straight from the gate - 

I’m helpless.

I’m helpless.

I’m helpless.

I’m a helpless motherfucker,

I got love on the soul.

curves speaking in vice,

running my space, tattooing my eyes,

as my hands shake and trace.

lord, gimme some strength,

I’m howling for faith.

she’s walking like the devil

but she’s toungin’ with grace.

I’m helpless.

I’m helpless.

I’m helpless.

I’m a helpless motherfucker,

I got love on the soul.

I woke up deep and dirty,

and rose from the dream.

I was sweating through the sheets,

worried for the fee.

lord, gimme some kicks, I’m wild, I’m free -

I like her on her knees before

the sun can see.

I’m helpless.

I’m helpless.

I’m helpless.

I’m a helpless motherfucker,

I got love on the soul.

I’m helpless.

oh, helpless,

helpless, helpless.
