Why can't you see I'm just no good at these things?
I wanna love you like the man I'm supposed to be.
But you don't mean these conversations get boring
The fake, pathetic workings lack consistency.

You turn and ask me
Why don't you hold me baby, oh oh baby
My cool is melting away and I'm making a mess
You can't see me like this

Helpless, helpless
What makes my lonely heart feel like this?
Helpless, I'm helpless, when it comes to you

Leave me alone. I know I'm not making sense
But I know I can't let you come any closer
It's my security, it's my self-defense
I keep on doing all this over and over

You turn and ask me,
Just get to know me baby, oh oh baby
I turn away and pretend that I'm doing just fine
But you're inside my mind
And I'm

Helpless, helpless
What makes my lonely heart feel like this?
Helpless, I'm helpless, when it comes to you

I'm caught in the way we talk,
I'm never good enough
Your love's like a wrecking ball and I don't wanna break apart
Break apart, oh oh oh ooh

Helpless, helpless
What makes my wounded heart feel like this?
Helpless, I'm helpless, when it comes to you

Helpless, helpless
What makes my wounded heart feel like this?
Helpless, I'm helpless, when it comes to you
When it comes to you.
