Help Me Stand

Holding on
By a thread
And my hair is
Falling off my head
Wave goodbye
And I don't
Recognize my own face anymore
And I know
There's no going back to before
Can someone help me find my way
Can someone come and hold my hand
Can someone make this all go away
Can someone come and help me stand
And I'm too young
For this sh*t
But I will
Make meaning out of it
I guess
But there's still
So much beauty here
It makes me cry
In this dark
The light comes
To take me by surprise
Can someone help me find my way
Can someone come and hold my hand
Can someone make this all go away
Can someone come and help me stand
Oh, I don't want you to see me like this
Oh, but sometimes we just need a witness
Can someone help me find my way
Can someone come and hold my hand
Can someone make this all go away
Can someone come and help me stand
Can someone help me find my way
Can someone come and hold my hand
Can someone make this all go away
Can someone come and help me stand
Can someone come and help me stand
Can someone come and help me stand
Can someone come and help me stand
Can someone come and help me

The Bargain

Did I eat too many hotdogs
Did I break too many hearts
Was I staying up too late
Was it too many false starts
Was it too much frozen pizza
All those nights in high school
Was it 'cause I stole that bracelet
From that mall kiosk to look cool
If you could only tell me
Why you turned your back
Then I could save my own life
And get it back on track
I'll do anything you say
I'll work out 18 times a day
And put all my clothes away
For a chance at one more day
Was I drinking too much whiskey
Or was it too much wine
Was I trading too much gossip
Was I judging all the time
Did I eat too many donuts
Did my own heart break too much
Was I dishing too much side-eye
Am I out of touch
If you could only tell me
Why you turned your back
Then I could save my own life
And get it back on track
I'll do anything you say
I drink a green juice everyday
And put my judgment away
And give only love today
Did I think too much of mylsef
Or too less of someone else
Or was it just the reverse
Or did I ignore a cry for help
Did I sit around for too long
Did I not write enough songs
Is it 'cause I've gotten lazy
Or think that I don't belong
If you could only tell me
Why you turned your back
Then I could save my own life
And get it back on track
I'll do anything you say
I'll do a good deed everyday
And put my ego away
And make the most of life today
I'll do anything you say
I'll work out 20 times a day
And put all my clothes away
For a chance at one more day

Superglue

I didn't know left from right
I didn't know up from down
But you came to scoop me up and you scraped me
Right off the ground
When all I did was cry
When I thought I lost my mind
You came to pick me up then you ordered me
A giant glass of wine
And when I fell apart
You brought tape to mend my broken heart
You made my sorrow yours then you came to my house
And did my chores
And I don't know how to be
With this love all around me
And I try to take it in
But the sensation overwhelms my skin
Well now I'm all patched up
And I'm trying to refill my cup
So I can be there for you too if your life ever needs
A little superglue
I still confuse left and right (I think I always will)
'Cause sometimes this world
Its upside down
But I know I won't get too lost
With all my friends around
No I know I won't get too lost
With all of you around

Debbie Miller Seattle, Washington
Seattle songwriter Debbie Miller is like a tantalizing book of short stories. There are few musicians who work as diligently as she to be as narratively engaging. Her lyrics, like tightrope walkers, rollick on the taught wire of song, guiltlessly and pointedly inspiring listeners who crave more of their spectacle. Miller has played prominent Northwest festivals like Timbrrr! and Upstream. ... more
