Dear Helena, do you ever wonder
Weaving your baskets of heedless truth
With a grain of salt to take it all in
Walking blindly hand in hand
Helena don't you know
Rome is burning
Think about your own life
Leave me to mine
Dear Helena did you ever notice
Life doesn't always go as planned
Help yourself - make the effort
No good with your head in the sand
Helena don't you know
Rome is burning
Think about your own life
Leave me to mine
You have your questions and your fears
I have myself to answer to
Is the sum of our deeds all we leave
If I told you would it matter
Dear Helena could you ever believe
In a world where dreams come true
Close your mouth then you might notice
The finger that's pointing back at you
Helena don't you know
Rome is burning
Think about your own life
Leave me to mine
As we sit at the end of the day
Do you think of a better place
I know you might not like who I am
If I told you would you spit in my face
As the river cuts into the earth
And pushes its waste to the sea
Life passes through my empty shell
Pushing me into eternity
