Helpless

Originally recorded by Diamond Head (from the album Garage Inc.)

Back to Metallica Albums

I've gotta see you moving fast, see you come my way.

See the dreams, I hope they last, never fade away.

Gotta see the lights above, make it loud tonight.

Gotta set it all afire, set it all alight.

*

See the flashing lights, hear the thunder roar,

I am gonna set you all alight.

Gotta make it man, I ain't got a choice,

Gotta fill this hall tonight.

*

Helpless, helpless, helpless, helpless.

*

I don't know what I'm gonna do, maybe not tonight.

Gotta set you all afire, gotta treat you right.

I can see the flashing lights, lit before your love.

Gotta hear the thunder roar, coming from above.

*

See the flashing lights, hear the thunder roar,

I am gonna set you all alight.

Gotta make it man, I ain't got a choice,

Gotta fill this hall tonight.

*

Helpless, helpless, helpless, helpless.

*

I can see the stars, I can see what's going on.

Every night alone I sing my song just for fun.

Only time will tell if I'll make it myself someday.

This stage is mine, music is my destiny.

*

Cannot squeeze the life from me.

*

I can see the stars, I can see what's going on.

Every night alone I sing my song just for fun.

Only time will tell if I'll make it myself someday.

This stage is mine, music is my destiny.

Cannot squeeze the life from me
