lyrics

Help Less
Words & Music: Derek R Rodriguez

I never meant
To take your place but
You took mine
So I'll fill this space and
You're lying there
So weak and small and
I close my eyes
So I won't see it all

Nothing to do but
Stand around
Could I help less?
Could I help less?
Nothing to do but
Stare straight down
Could I help less?
Could I help less?
Right now

Father beside me
his posture the same
Sitting stoic
In his silent shame
Nothing in this moment
that I can change but
I need to tell him
He's got none of the blame

Nothing to do but
Stand around
Could I help less?
Could I help less?
Nothing to do but
Stare straight down
Could I help less?
Could I help less?
Want to take you
From all this harm
But I don't have the strength
In my frail arms so
Nothing to do but
Ignore the sounds
Could I help less?
Could I help less?
Could I help less?
Right now

I hear your words
Tho they're hard to say
That you don't want to scare me
Or see me afraid
How in this moment
Can you think of me?
I guess your love's just
Greater than your need

Nothing to do but
Stand around
Could I help less?
Could I help less?
Nothing to do but
Stare straight down
Could I help less?
Could I help less?
Want to take you
From all this harm
But I don't have the strength
In my frail arms so
Nothing to do but
Ignore the sounds
Could I help less?
Could I help less?
Could I help less?
Could I help less?
Could I help less?
Right now
Right now

Mother can you hear me?
Mother can you see me?
Mother can you feel it
When I touch your hand? and
Mother can you hear me?
Mother can you see me?
Mother can you feel it
When I touch your face? and
Mother can you?
Mother can you?
Mother can you?
Mother can you?
Mother can you?
Mother can you?
Mother can you?
