Well I know you couldn't love me. cause you're promised to a wealthy man. take a look what are you seeing?. is that a noose or a wedding band. Should i go to see a healer. nervous twitchin' in my hands. nervous twitchin' in my head. God help me rid this feelin'. cause i'm fallin' to pieces. and i can't get out of bed. Beggars and hangers-on. try to take you from me. someone with a bible in his pocket. clouding everything you see. Beggars and hangers-on. they chip it away. bury your soul in the river. cause the end is here to stay. God help me rid this feelin'. cause i'm fallin' to pieces. and i can't get out of bed. I was wrong i don't need you. it seems reckless and unfair. better days. are far behind. guess 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 and hangers-on. try to take you from me. someone with a bible in his pocket. clouding everything you see. Beggars and hangers-on. they chip it away. bury your soul in the river. cause the end is here to stay. Beggars and hangers on. beggars and hangers on. no no no no. no no no no. no no no no.
