Help Me

[Verse 1]
Baby, help me to be a good man
Baby, help me to be kind
'Cause I'm moving the wrong direction
I got bad things on my mind
And I'm hanging like a scarecrow
With all my insides falling out
Like a wolfman, like an alien
Like the people you don't have to think about
And you told me to be joyful
But I'm freaked out by the sound
Walking sideways up the staircase
I fall right back to the ground

[Chorus]
Lift me up, lift me up
Lift me up to the sun one time
Lift me up, lift me up
Let me be the chosen one
Before I come undone

[Verse 2]
When the lord, the lord gets bored
Comes knocking at my door
And he says, "Buddy, you're a bad man
You got to work for your reward"
And I took it like a slingshot
And it shook me to the core
In the middle of a nightmare cryin' mercy
And lyin' facedown on the floor

[Chorus]
Lift me up, lift me up
Lift me up to the sun one time
Lift me up, lift me up
Let me be the chosen one
Before I come undone
