Heaven help a timid child in a trendy tide He really doesn't know That his heart's being taken for a ride Doing what the world lays down As a steadfast rule And hanging when the world says to change Like a steadfast fool Heaven heaven help me I'm one of the dominoes Chain reaction coming Blow by blow Heaven help a heedless man in a time of need He can't feel the knife In his back Or see the blood that he bleeds Walking 'round blind To the harm that's being done He thinks it's all right 'Cause it's happening to everyone Heaven help a seeker of truth In an age of lies Gonna make himself believe That the truth is whatever he buys Gonna buy what the world says to buy In a monotone Gonna cry when the whole world cries And the truth is known
