I know you'll help us when you're
Feeling better and we realize
That it might not be for a long, long time

But we're willing to wait on you
We believe in everything that you can do
If you could only lay down your mind

I want you to try to help yourself

Take the time to take apart
Each brick that sits outside your heart
And look around you

There's people everywhere
And though they don't always show it
They're just as scared and we'd be more prepared
If you just pulled on through

I want you to try to help yourself

Oceans of water underneath our feet
Terrible design
Dusty rooms you cannot sweep
Are clouding up your mind

I know you'll help us when you're
Feeling better and we realize
That it might not be for a long, long time

But we're willing to wait on you
We believe in everything that you can do
If you could only lay down your mind

I want you to try to help yourself

I know you'll help us when you're
Feeling better and we realize
That it might not be for a long, long time

But we're willing to wait on you
We believe in everything that you can do
If you could only lay down your mind

I want you to try to help yourself
