How Do I
I saw the wars begin
At the edges of reality
And the blood I witnessed being shed
Left a viler taste inside my mouth
How do these hands, how do these hands
Lift your weight upon my own shoulders
How do these hands, how do these hands
Heal your wounds, lift your scars aloud
So how can I, how can I
How can I help without knowing what to do?
How should I, how should I
How should I aid you when I'm biting more than I can chew?
Maybe I'll live and learn, live and learn
Live and learn that you'll be completely fine in the end
So how do I, how do I
How do I look you in the eyes and try to help a dear friend?
It hurts to feel as if I'm stone cold
Because I'm really burning with compassion
But I'm unsure of where to pull my strings
Of how to piece it all together, take action
How do I help, how do I help
You to see whoever's really there for you
I'm no hero, just a man without a plan
I don't want to make a mindless reaction
So how can I, how can I
How can I help without knowing what to do?
How should I, how should I
How should I aid you when I'm biting more than I can chew?
Maybe I'll live and learn, live and learn
Live and learn that you'll be completely fine in the end
So how do I, how do I
How do I look you in the eyes and try to help a dear friend?
Don't you fret; I can feel
Don't you worry; I am real
But my doubt fights against myself as well
Just to help you escape this crap-stained hell
I'll try (Won't try)
To help (Can't aid)
I'm here (I'm gone)
For you (None saved)
And even if I (And since I just)
Lose it all (Cannot win)
I'll still build (I am made)
Your world anew (Of purest sin)
So how can I, how can I help
How do I, how do I save you...
So how can I, how can I
How can I help without knowing what to do?
How should I, how should I
How should I aid you when I'm biting more than I can chew?
Maybe I'll live and learn, live and learn
Live and learn that you'll be completely fine in the end
So how do I, how do I
How do I look you in the eyes and try to help a dear friend?
Maybe I'll watch it burn, watch it burn
Either the embers or your world in my hands
How do I, how do I
How do I help my dearest friend?
I'll set you free, it's me, you'll see
(I have no place inside your heart)
I'll set you free, it's me, you'll see
(I have no place inside your heart)
You'll see...
(You'll see...)
