Helena Lyrics

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

[Pre-Chorus]
And what's the worse you take
From every heart you break?
And like the blade you stain
Well, I've been holding on tonight

[Chorus]
And what's the worst that I can say?
The things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight

[Verse 2]
Came a time
When every starfall brought you to tears again
We are the very hurt you sold

[Pre-Chorus]
And what's the worse you take
From every heart you break?
And like the blade you stain
Well, I've been holding on tonight
[Chorus]
And what's the worst that I can say?
The things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight
And if you carry on this way
The things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight

[Verse 3]
Can you hear me?
Are you near me?
Can we pretend
To leave and then
We'll meet again
When both our cars collide

[Chorus]
And what's the worst that I can say?
The things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight
And if you carry on this way
The 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 [?]
