Heaven Help Me Now

Wing of angels Waves of emotion Bring her home to me
Stare down the cold blue muzzle of a steel blue gun I guess this is the final stand, nowhere to run Do I regret the past? Now I'm tied to the mast Was I brave, did I live, have I won?
Do I regret a single thing that I had to say? Self-centered pride and hubris tell me I'm okay My check's post-dated now I'm over-rated, overdrawn, and I'm still complicated
Oh, oh! Heaven help me now I'm up against the wall again I know Oh, oh! Please, please show me how I'm in too deep, so Heaven help me now
The darkest night is on me, chills me to the bone This is, by far, the hardest thing I've ever done Bring things back down to size, keep eyes upon the prize And pray, take a breath, and I say
Oh, oh! Heaven help me now I'm up against the wall again I know Oh, oh! Please, please show me how I'm in too deep, so Heaven help me now
Oh, oh, Heaven help me now I'm up against the wall again I know Oh, oh, please, please show me how I wanna leave, but there's nowhere to go
