Life’s Little Helper – Written Thursday 19th October 2000 (Aged 25)

Life’s Little Helper

life’s little helper
gives me the glue
then a little shelter
i would like to give you pride
break your routine of self destruction
but it is ingrained inside
no trust, kills hope that used to be alive
no trust means no hurt
but it means no dreams
and that could never work

life’s little helper
gives you confidence
and then a little shelter
i would like you to see another way
i would really like to show you
but i do not know the security code
the one that opens your eyes
i only know your insecurity code
that brings on the dark and not the lights
life’s little helper
could treat your right
