Neon Trees - Helpless lyrics

Why can't you see I'm just
No good at these things?
I want to love you like the
Man I'm supposed to be
But, you don't mean these
Conversations get boring
The fake, pathetic workings like consistency

You turn and ask me
Why don't you hold me baby, oh oh baby
My cool is melting away and I'm making a mess
You can't see me like this

Helpless, helpless
What makes my wounded heart feel like this?
Helpless, I'm helpless when it comes to you

Leave me alone I know I'm not making sense
But, I know I can't let you come any closer
It's my security, it's my self-defense
I keep on doing all this over and over

You turn and ask me
Just get to know me baby, oh oh baby
I turn away and pretend that
I'm doing just fine
But, you're inside my mind

And I'm helpless, helpless
What makes my wounded heart feel like this?
Helpless, I'm helpless when it comes to you

I'm caught in the way we talk
I'm never good enough
Your love's like a wrecking ball and
I don't want to break apart
Break apart, oh oh oh oh

Helpless, helpless
What makes my wounded heart feel like this?
Helpless, I'm helpless when it comes to you
Helpless, helpless
(I'm helpless, I'm helpless)
What makes my wounded heart feel like this?
(I'm helpless, I'm helpless)
Helpless, I'm helpless when it comes to you
When it comes to you
