Helpless Lyrics by Michael Nathan

2022

[Verse 1]
Why you gotta make me feel so helpless
I'm wondering where the hell my head is
Maybe I’m just losing it today
And I can’t help but seem to stay awake
I can tell that you been feeling restless
You know I'm at the center of your nexus
Why you gotta act like it’s okay
And I ain’t tryna play no more head games

[Pre-Chorus]
But here we are again, you’re staying
Up til 3AM and saying

[Chorus]
Call me in the morning, baby, before you have to leave
I'm waiting til the sun is up before I fall asleep
You’re stuck in all that LA traffic while I’m stuck in my dreams
The California sun is burning and it ain’t up to me

[Verse 2]
You know I ain’t tryna make excuses
And I ain’t tryna be confusing
But that ain’t why I’m standing at your door
I don’t know what I been looking for
I’m just tryna tie up all my loose ends
I know that you been waiting for a minute
And I don’t think that I could stay away
You been taking up all my head space

[Pre-Chorus]
But here we are again, you’re staying
Up til 3AM and saying

[Chorus]
Call me in the morning, baby, before you have to leave
(You know I want you in the morning)
I'm waiting til the sun is up before I fall asleep
(And I can't get you off my mind)
You’re stuck in all that LA traffic while I’m stuck in my dreams
(Why you sleeping on us baby)
The California sun is burning and it ain’t up to me
