No Help At All

I've been burning

The candle at both ends

And running myself more ragged

Than a Raggedy Ann

I couldn't read the writing

On the wall

Until I hit that wall

And that was no help at all

I've been learning

All my lessons the hard way

And nursing the exit wound

From a near fatal mistake

You could say it was time

For a wake up call

I never did get that call

There was no help at all

Won't somebody tell me

What these eyes are for

I can't see a light any more

I can't see a light any more

It gets lonesome in that valley

Well, you're on your own

You've got to go it alone

You've got to go it alone

I've been burning

All my bridges and contacts

And running the risk of losing

All you can never get back

If I'm shooting myself in the foot

I'll crawl

I'm willing to take that fall

I'll do it with no help at all

I never did get that call

Man, there was no help at all

There was no help at all

There was no help at all

No help at all

There was no, no help at all

I've been burning

The candle at both ends

No help at all

There was no one around

No help at all
