Helena (Live at Starland) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Long ago, just like the hearse you die to get in again
We are so far from you
Burning on, just like the match you strike to incinerate
The lives of everyone you know

[Pre-Chorus]
And what's the worst you take (Worst you take)
From every heart you break? (Heart you break)
And like the blade you stain (Blade you stain)
Well, I've been holding on (Tonight)

[Chorus]
What's the worst that I can say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and good

[Verse 2]
Came a time when every star fall brought you to tears again
We are the very hurt you (Sold)

[Pre-Chorus]
And what's the worst you take (Worst you take)
From every heart you break? (Heart you break)
And like the blade you stain (Blade you stain)
Now you motherfuckers get off the ground when this comes in!
[Chorus]
What's the worst that I can say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight
Well, if you carry on this way
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight

[Bridge]
Can you hear me?
Put your fucking hands together Jersey!
Are you near me?
Can we pretend to leave, and then
We'll meet again
When both- C'mon get off the ground!

[Chorus]
What's the worst that I can say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight
Well, if you carry on this way
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
