Lyrics for Heaven Help Us as interpreted by strider3005

Heaven Help Us Lyrics
Hear the sound
The angels come screaming
Down, your voice
I hear you've been bleeding
Make your choice
They say you've been pleading
Someone save us

Heaven help us now
Come crashing down
We'll hear the sound
As you're falling down meds

I'm at this old hotel
But can't tell if I've been breathing or sleeping
Or screaming or waiting for the man to call
And maybe all of the above
Cause mostly I've been sprawled on these cathedral steps
While spitting out the blood and screaming
Someone save us

Heaven help us now
Come crashing down
We'll hear the sound
As you're falling down

And will you pray for me?
Or make me say don't leave?
And will you lay for me?
Or make a saint of me?

Cause I'll give you all the nails you need
Cover me in gasoline
Wipe away those tears of blood again
And the punchline to the joke is asking
Someone save us

Heaven help us now
Come crashing down
We'll hear the sound
As you fall

And would you pray for me?
(You don't know a thing about my sins)
(How the misery begins)
Or make us say don't leave?
(You don't know)
(So I'm burning, I'm burning)
And will you lay for me?
(You don't know a thing about my sins)
(How the misery begins)
Or make a saint of me?
(You don't know)
(Cause I'm burning, I'm burning)

Cause I'll give you all the nails you need
(I'm burning, I'm burning again)
Cover me in gasoline again

Yay, It's up here... Now the lyrics are pretty self explanatory but I guess its better that way, I see they still carried onto this album their Catholic references :p nails, tears of blood, cathedral steps and angels. Thought they'd gave up on that but I'm glad they didn't.

Nice song overall, it takes two listens to get the feeling out of it, I listened one at night, and woke up yearning for it , since then, love it (wich was three days ago so I'm overdoing it)

Cheers to MCR

I love it. I love it. I love it. I love it. And from what I've heard, the new album will be awesome! My favourite bit of the song is "You don't know a thing about my sins/ How the misery begins"

Anyway, fan-girling over (ironic, seeing as I'm in possession of the Y-chromosome), yeah, the song's fairly self-explanatory... kinda... :S

^^^ It's a B-side on the WTTBP single so it won't be.

I'm pretty sure these of the correct lyrics:

Hear the sound
The angels come screaming
Down your voice
I hear you've been bleeding

Make your choice
They say you've been pleading
Someone save us

Heaven help us now
Come crashing down
We'll hear the sound
As you're falling down

I'm at this old hotel
But can't tell if I've been breathing or sleeping
Or screaming or waiting for the man to call
And maybe all of the above
Cause mostly I've been sprawled on these cathedral steps
While spitting out the blood and screaming
Someone save us

Heaven help us now
Come crashing down
We'll hear the sound
As you're falling down

And will you pray for me?
Or make me say don't leave?
And will you lay for me?
Or make us change?

Cause I'll give you all the meds you need
Cover me in gasoline
Wipe away those tears of blood again
And the punchline to the joke is asking
Someone save us

Heaven help us now
Come crashing down
We'll hear the sound
As you fall

And would you pray for me?
(You don't know a thing about my sins)
(How the misery begins)
Or make us say don't leave?
(You don't know)
(So I'm burning, I'm burning)
And will you lay for me?
(You don't know a thing about my sins)
(How the misery begins)
Or make us change?
(You don't know)
(Cause I'm burning, I'm burning)

Cause I'll give you all the meds you need
(I'm burning, I'm burning again)
Cover me in gasoline again

Wow, and this song didn't even make the album cut??

To me, it seems to be about some person who's going through a really rough time and tries to turn to religion, but it doesn't help. Actually that doesn't really make sense at all. I don't particularly know the exact meaning.... Hard to explain.

The vocals, in the beginning at least, are modeled after (or possibly just reminiscent of) the song O Night Divine. It's an old Christmas song, for those who don't know.

It's 'nails you need' alright, and instead of 'make us change' it is 'make a saint of..' in the first, and the latter, 'make a saint'
Its clearer on the mixed part, nails and saints ;-)

OK, I listened to it more carefully, it does sound more like "nails" and "make a saint of me". Thus I've changed it again :)

that's the part between dead and the end.
it's not bad for a b-side, but nevertheless, their sound has weakened wether we like it or not.

Im guessing
"I'm at this old hotel
But can't tell if I've been breathing or sleeping
Or screaming or waiting for the man to call
And maybe all of the above"
is about the hotel they stayed at during the making of TBP, they all say how it fucked them up in their book.. thats the most obvious thing that comes to mind, anyway
