Foster The People - Helena Beat

Sometimes life it takes you by the hand. 
It puts you down before you know it 
It's gone and you're dead again. 
I've been in places and I won't pretend 
That I make it I just follow my head. 
When its strange to take a walk downstairs 
Sweep u all up on a corner and pay for my bread. 
You know that I cannot believe my own truth 
To show what a truth, got nothin' to lose. 

Yeah yeah and it's okay. 
I tie my hands up to a chair so I don't fall that way. 
Yeah yeah and I'm alright. 
I took a sip of something poison but I'll hold on tight. 

You know those days when u wanted to choose 
To not get out of bed and get lost in your head again. 
You play the game but you gotta cut 
Cuz' you're comin' down hard your joints are off stud. 
I tried to say that's not the only way 
I never knew if I could convince myself to change. 
You were pacing I was insecure. 
Slip and fall I got the call of the prison I was livin' in. 

Yeah yeah and it's okay. 
I tie my hands up to a chair so I don't fall that way. 
Yeah yeah and I'm alright. 
I took a sip of something poison but I'll hold on tight
