Helping Hand
Lyrics

I don’t wanna come to you, oh it wouldn’t be right

Got your own issues, I know you don’t need mine

-

There’s a part of me, wants to sanitise

My mind’s disease, and sterilise

-

I NEED A HELPING HAND

I’M NOT A CHARLATAN

I NEED A HELPING HAND

BUT I WON’T ASK

-

I don’t wanna come to you, this is not your fight

Can’t allow you to, be sucked inside

-

There’s a part of me, wants to publicise

My quandary, and analyse

-

I NEED A HELPING HAND

I’M NOT A CHARLATAN

I NEED A HELPING HAND

BUT I WON’T ASK

-

I got a wage and change in a dish

Compare me to most, I’m rich

Feel guilty for feeling like this

-

I don’t’ wanna cause a fuss, but I need to vent

Or this aching state will be permanent

-

I NEED A HELPING HAND

I’M NOT A CHARLATAN

I NEED A HELPING HAND

BUT I WON’T ASK

-

I NEED A HELPING HAND

TO FORMULATE A PLAN

I NEED A HELPING HAND

BUT I WON’T ASK

This one is definitely about me, but I dare say there are other people out there who do and have felt the same way.

Helping Hand started off as a song about going to someone for help when you need a quick pick me up, but it somehow took on a Zuton-esque tune and morphed into a more indecisive song about whether or not to tell someone about day to day problems and the feelings they invoke.

It stems from the fact that whenever I feel down about something, or something pisses me off, I like to complain about it. However, I immediately feel guilty for doing so when I know there are people in the world with problems a hundred times worse than my own
