Helpless Lyrics by Opshop

Second Hand Planet

2007

[Intro]
Ho!

[Verse 1]
Come gather 'round, but ignore all the gossip
You know you're welcome around here whenever you like
Whenever you like
Did I mention the ocean gives us
Every second breath?
So please don't sigh, don't sigh

[Chorus]
'Cause we can see it happenin'
We can hear it happenin' to us
So why do we feel so helpless?

[Verse 2]
We see it on the faces of the Mothers and Fathers
I can't help but make meanin' everyday
Oh, what would you say?
Oh, where's my grief?
Who are my Angels?
Not a day goes by I don't wonder whom should I pray
Maybe it's the Priest in the flames

[Chorus]
And we can see it happening
We can hear it happening to us
So why do we feel so helpless?

We can see it happening
We all know it's happening to us
Oh

[Guitar Solo]

[Outro]
So come gather around
Just one more time
I need to see your face again
So come gather around
Just one more time
I need to see your
See your
I need to see your
Face again
