Help Me Feel Safe
©Schantell Wharton/Clay Blevins

V1
I'm doing the dishes/ I'm in the kitchen doing he the dishes
Your lying on the couch fast asleep
The usual way we're avoid talking about everything
that we need
We're one paycheck away from losing everything
Trying to keep us together --has me sleepless
I am scared to move even breathe

Pre
Every time I try to talk
Fussin and fighting hurts my heart

Ch
Can't you help me feel safe
Can't keep going on this way
Walking on eggshell Or we just
Don't talk at all
Got me spinning right before the fall

If were going to
save this love
Help me feel safe

V2

We've survived tough times before
Tell me this time is no different
You'll work another job to help us
I'll spend less money at the store
Keep food on the table -roof over our head
We need show each other our love isn't dead

CH
Can't you help me feel safe
Can't keep go on this way
Walking on eggshell
Or we just don't talk at all
Got me spinning right before the fall
If were going to save this love
Help me feel safe

Bridge

Take me in your arms
Whisper in my ear
Everything's going to be alright
Calm all my fears

CH
Help me feel safe
Can't keep go on this way
Walking on eggshell
Or we just don't talk at all
Got me spinning right before the fall
If were going to save our love
Help me feel safe

this is a nice acoustic guitar song with a female vocal

I enjoy the honesty of the composition, it's comes right from the heart! That's always a Great start for a Good tune. The vocalist needs to work on the intonation of the song, she has a nice voice, it's just a tad pitchy, but I think it can be worked out!! It could possibly be just breath control, proper vocal control. Give the tune another sing and see if thru concentration of the pitch....you can work it out!! Good Luck!! I like the sound of your voice!!

These bluesy lyrics will bring you right into the living room and make you feel like the distraught soul is pleading with you, or you may be reminded of how you felt when you were in her situation. Either way, it hits your heart! This would be a great album cut, and a much requested song for Tracy Chapman. It is conversational, desperate, and puts this core feeling of needing reassurance and effort across in an emotionally powerful way. The tune is easy to follow and compliments the lyrics well, rising to a climax as it moves through the chorus.

I like the melody but song lacks a hook

Wow! What a great song! Puts me right in your living room and feeling your pain and angst. If ever a song communicated the cry of a troubled heart, this one does. The word pictures are excellent. The story is real and believable. The cry for help is sincere and poignantly communicated. This song is so real and authentic; I imagine it would be the heart cry of many a troubled wife/girlfriend. "Help me feel safe" Excellent and simple hook.
