Shinedown – Cry For Help

You’ve been hiding out
For quite a while now,
Living off of people you know
Trying to raise a little money
To pay off all the monkeys
That you met inside the
Rabbit hole
You take a payment from
The white witch that’s spoken
To you with __?
Well, theres a wolf outside
A brick house screaming;
“Is someone gonna blow it in?”

Because a mind is a weapon
You see and it’s got you on
Your hands and knees
Pull the trigger if you got
A way out, unless you want
To count it off 1,2 (1,2,3)

[Chorus]
You better pray that theres
Another way out
You better pray that
Someones listening now
(Doesn’t matter what you got)
‘Cause when you lie like
The devil himself
No angels gonna hear your
Cry for help!

I know you must really think
It’s funny, you had everybody
Pulling me in
Well, that’s a little un-assuming
Considering that you knew me,
I’m the only one that considered
You a friend

Because a mind is a weapon
You see and it’s got you on
Your hands and knees
Pull the trigger if you got
A way out, unless you want
To count it off 1,2 (1,2,3)

[Chorus]
You better pray that theres
Another way out
You better pray that
Someones listening now
(Doesn’t matter what you got)
‘Cause when you lie like
The devil himself
No angels gonna hear your
Cry for help!

Count it off, 1,2 (1,2,3)

[Chorus]
You better pray that theres
Another way out
You better pray that
Someones listening now
(Doesn’t matter what you got)
‘Cause when you lie like
The devil himself
No angels gonna hear your
Cry for help!

For help
For help
For help

[Talking]
When ah, when we started to write this record in January of last year.
I got a phone call from someone, and ah,

[Talking to an audience member]
Don’t worry, hold on. We will get to the song, let me finish the story, it is important to me. It might be important to you. You never know.

[Talking to the whole audience]
So what happened was I got a phone call from my lady and she told me that I was going to be a father which I wasn’t expecting.

[Drums rolls in the background]
[Audience Cheers and Claps]

[Talking to the whole audience]
So now we have a four month year old boy, during the time we were making the record, this song came to us. This song is for him, it’s called: “If you only knew”.
