Helena Lyrics

Long ago
Just like the hearse you’d die to get in again
We are so far from you

Burning on
Just like a match you start to incinerate
The lives of everyone you knew

And what's the worst you take
From every heart you break
And like a blade you stain
But I've been holding on tonight

What's the worst thing I can say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight

Came a time
Where every star fall brought you to tears again
We are the very hurt you sold

And what's the worst you take
From every heart you break
And like the blade you stain
But I've been holding on tonight
What's the worst thing I can say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight

And if I carry on this way
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight

Can you hear me?
Are you near me?
Can we pretend
To leave and then
We'll meet again
When both our cars collide

What's the worst thing I can say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight

And if I 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 [?]
