The Mute Stones - Robots, Tape Decks, & Other Love Songs

Helpless

400 tons of steel hurtling towards the earth
I am helpless

I am falling asleep at the back
Of a train out to Chicago
Or is it headed for Memphis
I am a shrimp boat lost at the sea
Looking for any sign of life
Praying for sandy shores

I am as useless as ground control in a storm
400 tons of steel hurtling towards the earth
I am helpless

I am saving myself for someone
That I'm pretty sure exists
Only in my mind
I am wandering the desert alone
Watching mirages ebb and flow
On the horizon

I am as useless as ground control in a storm
400 tons of steel hurtling towards the earth
I am helpless

I am a bear hunting fish in a creek
That has long since gone dry
And winter is coming
I am learning that comedy
Is simply tragedy plus time
But who has the time

I am as useless as ground control in a storm
400 tons of steel hurtling towards the earth
I am helpless
I am helpless
