Helter Skeleton Lyrics
See, I know a nurse specialized in the worst.
When you're a friend in need she'll be your friend in deed.
When you can't find your tongue and when your rational weeps.
She says uh, huh.
And why don't you lean on me if you wanna?
Why don't you lean on me for a while?
And since you only get high on the weekends, uh huh.
Why don't you feed on me tonight?
See I know the taste of the spikes in your brains as you crawl to me,
a little closer to me.
I guess you're in the place that I used to be baby,
now it's down to me so simply down to me.
Oh, but I'm a fool and I fall apart too easily,
cause you know me how I love to be with madame misery.
Come and visit me.
I'm on the 99th floor of apathy.
But still you can lean on me if you wanna.
And why don't you lean on me for a while.
And since you only get high on the weekends, uh huh.
Why don't you feed on me tonight?
She said there will always be a soft spot in my cardiac arrest.
And I will love you until I die from all of this.
And something tells me I will die alone.
But still you can lean on me if you wanna.
So why don't you lean on me for a while.
Since you only get high on the weekends, uh huh.
Why don't you feed on me tonight?
(See, I know the taste of the spike in your brains as you crawl to me
a little closer to me.)
And why don't you feed on me tonight?
(Oh madame misery come and visit me.
Oh won't you crawl to me, a little closer to me?)
And baby there will always be a soft spot in my cardiac arrest.
And I will love you 'till I die from all of this, yeah.
And there will always be a soft spot in my cardiac arrest.
And I will love you 'till I die from this.
When you're a friend in need she'll be your friend in deed.
When you can't find your tongue and when your rational weeps.
She says uh, huh.
Why don't you lean on me for a while?
And since you only get high on the weekends, uh huh.
Why don't you feed on me tonight?
a little closer to me.
I guess you're in the place that I used to be baby,
now it's down to me so simply down to me.
Oh, but I'm a fool and I fall apart too easily,
cause you know me how I love to be with madame misery.
Come and visit me.
I'm on the 99th floor of apathy.
And why don't you lean on me for a while.
And since you only get high on the weekends, uh huh.
Why don't you feed on me tonight?
And I will love you until I die from all of this.
And something tells me I will die alone.
So why don't you lean on me for a while.
Since you only get high on the weekends, uh huh.
Why don't you feed on me tonight?
a little closer to me.)
Oh won't you crawl to me, a little closer to me?)
And I will love you 'till I die from all of this, yeah.
And there will always be a soft spot in my cardiac arrest.
And I will love you 'till I die from this.
