“What’ve I Done to Help”

What've I done to help?

What've I done to help?

Somebody saved me

What've I done to help

What've I done to help

and not myself?

What've I done to help?

What've I done to help?

Somebody saved me

What've I done to help

What've I done to help

and not myself?

I thought I was alone in the world

until my memories gathered round me in the night

I thought I was strong

until I finally had to fight

If I kept my head down, and showed up to work on time, watched my appetite

Put the money in the mattress

Lock the doors at night

and we'd all be alright

What've I done to help?

What've I done to help?

Somebody saved me

What've I done to help

What've I done to help

and not myself?

What've I done to help?

What've I done to help?

Somebody saved me

What've I done to help

What've I done to help

and not myself?

See I've made mistakes that I can't erase

Some of the love I've lost will not come back to me

I broke my word, I lied on a bible

Just to feel a little free

She didn't deserve it

Nobody ever deserves it

but I cut anchor and I drifted out to sea.

You found me busted

and somehow you trusted

I was not what I could be

What've I done to help?

What've I done to help?

Somebody saved me

What've I done to help

What've I done to help

and not myself?

What've I done to help?

What've I done to help?

Somebody saved me

What've I done to help

What've I done to help

and not myself?

We climbed to safety, you and me and the baby

Sent our thoughts and prayers to loved ones on the ground

and as the days went by we just stopped looking down

Now the world's on fire and we just climb higher

Until we're no longer bothered by the smoke and sound

Good people suffer and the heart gets tougher

Nothing given nothing found

What've I done to help?

What've I done to help?

Somebody saved me

What've I done to help

What've I done to help

and not myself?

What've I done to help?

What've I done to help?

Somebody saved me

What've I done to help

What've I done to help

and not myself?
