Verse 1:
When I walk in your shoes,
I understand a man confused.
There must have been,
But I don't care,
I feel the way,
Your soul does there.
Darling, they empathise,
Looking through,
Your bloodshot eyes.
And I know you;
You're so frustrated,
Above we all become,
What we once hated.
Bridge 1:
Be-sides, nobody,
Can be that wise.
Chorus 1:
I can't help you,
If you won't,
Help your-self.
I can't help you,
If you won't,
Help your-self.
You can only get,
So much from,
Someone else.
I can't help you,
If you won't,
Help your-self.
Verse 2:
You've got a degree,
A-in philosophy,
So you think,
You're clever-er than me.
But I'm not just,
Some drama queen,
'Cos it's where you're at,
Not where you've been.
So what do you,
Ex-pect from me,
To hold your head,
A-bove the sea?
And carry you,
Even though you're bigger,
'Cos don't you know,
You crush my tiny figure?
Bridge 2:
And anyway,
We're still so young,
And this isn't yesterday.
Chorus 2:
I can't help you,
If you won't,
Help your-self.
I can't help you,
If you won't,
Help your-self.
You can only get,
So much from,
Someone else.
I can't help you,
If you won't,
Help your-self.
Break:
You might be twenty five,
But in my mind,
I see you as [E/G#]sixteen years old,
Most of the time.
And I'm just a child,
And you're full grown,
And you are like nothing,
I've ever known.
