You couldn't love me
Cause you're promised
To a wealthy man
Take a look
What are you seein'?
Should I go to see a healer
Nervous twitchin' in my hands
Nervous twitchin' in my head
God help me rid this feeling'
Cause I'm falling all to pieces
And I can't get out of bed
Beggars & hangers-on
Try to take you from me
Someone with a Bible
In his pocket
Clouding everywhere you see
Beggars & hanger-on
They chip it away
Bury your soul in the river
Cause the end
Is here to stay
God help me rid this feeling'
Cause I'm falling' all to pieces
And I can't get out of bed
I was wrong
I don't need you
It seems reckfess and unfair
Better day's are far behind
Buess that's another cross
I'll have to bear
I know that there's a time
And a reason
To take the ghost
And lock it up inside
And maybe I am down
But I'm not beaten
Like anything
We were born to die
Beggars & hangers-on
Try to take you from me
Someone with a Bible
In his pocket
Clauding everything you see
Beggars & hangers-on
They chip it away
Bury your soul in the river
Cause the end is here to stay
Begars & hangers-on
Beggars & hangers-on
No no no no
No no no no
No no no no
Well I know You couldn't love me Cause you're promised To a wealthy man Take a look What are you seein'? Should I go to see a healer Nervous twitchin' in my hands Nervous twitchin' in my head God help me rid this feeling' Cause I'm falling all to pieces And I can't get out of bed Beggars & hangers-on Try to take you from me Someone with a Bible In his pocket Clouding everywhere you see Beggars & hanger-on They chip it away Bury your soul in the river Cause the end Is here to stay God help me rid this feeling' Cause I'm falling' all to pieces And I can't get out of bed I was wrong I don't need you It seems reckfess and unfair Better day's are far behind Buess that's another cross I'll have to bear I know that there's a time And a reason To take the ghost And lock it up inside And maybe I am down But I'm not beaten Like anything We were born to die Beggars & hangers-on Try to take you from me Someone with a Bible In his pocket Clauding everything you see Beggars & hangers-on They chip it away Bury your soul in the river Cause the end is here to stay Begars & hangers-on Beggars & hangers-on No no no no No no no no No no no no Explain Request ×
