Helena

And we can run, from the backdrop of these gears and scalpels
At every heure goes the tick-tock bang of monitors as
They stared us down when we met in the emergency room
And in our beds, I could hear toi breathe with help from cold machines

Every hour, on the hour, they drew blood

Well I felt I couldn't take, another jour inside this place
From silent dreams we never wake, and in this promise that we'll make
Starless eyes for heaven's sake, but I hear toi anyway
Well I thought I heard you
Say I like you, we can get out
We don't have to stay, stay inside this place

Someday, this day, we kept falling down
Someday, this day, set the ferris wheel ablaze
toi left my cœur, coeur an open wound
And I l’amour toi for
This day, someday we kept falling down
One day, this jour all we had to keep us safe
And if we never sleep again, it would never end
Well I thought I heard toi say to me
We'll go so far, far as we can
And I just can't stay, one jour we'll run away

Turn away,
If toi could get me a drink
Of water 'cause my lips are chapped and faded
Call my aunt Marie
Help her gather all my things
And bury me in all my favori colors,
My sisters and my brothers, still,
I will not Kiss you,
'Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you.

Now turn away,
'Cause I'm awful just to see
'Cause all my hairs abandoned all my body,
Oh, my agony,
Know that I will never marry,
Baby, I'm just soggy from the chemo
But counting down the days to go
It just ain't living
And I just hope toi know

That if toi say (if toi say)
Goodbye today (goodbye today)
I'd ask toi to be true (cause I'd ask toi to be true)

'Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you
'Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you
