Written for a scene in a show like Gray's Anatomy depicting a frantic struggling doctor on a fatal operation or a tragic scene in a Bond film where the love interest gets killed
lyrics
Powerless
Verse 1
I'm bending and about to break , I'm so tired and feeling weak
I'm vulnerable to mistakes, I didn't used make, I’m staring at defeat
I'm struggling to address all those shortcomings I suppress
so many things I wish I changed now I regret , Leaves me Powerless
1st chorus
Powerless as the light fades from your eyes I pray for a miracle , before all hope dies
powerless as I watch you slip away I've done everything I know how to do
it's all been in vain
2nd Verse
I am adrift on a stormy sea on a leaky boat without a sale
I’m running out of track on a speeding train and soon I will derail
Like bird with a broken wing I've lost control of so many things
I'm crumbling under the stress I'm so powerless
Bridge
Like a frightened boy at the leaking dyke with the water breaking through
Every time I plug another hole it gets replaced by two
I'm running out of fingers what more can I do I'm powerless
2nd chorus
powerless as the light fades from your eyes I pray for a miracle , before all hope dies
powerless as I watch you slip away I've done everything I know how to do
it's all been in vain, I'm Powerless , So Powerless
