Slash Beggars And Hangers On
Well I know,
You couldn't love me
'Cause you're promised to
A wealthy man
Take a look
What are you seein'?
Is that a noose?
Or a wedding band?
Should I go
To see a healer?
Nervous twitchin' in my hands
Ooh...
Nervous twitchin' in my head
God...help me rid this feelin'
'Cause I'm fallin' all to pieces
An' I can't get out of bed
Chorus:
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' all to pieces
An' 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 me
Guess that's another cross
I'll have to bear
Ooh...
I know 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
Chorus
Beggars and hangers-on
Beggars and hangers-on...
No no no no!
No no no no!
No no no no no no no no!
No no no no no no no no!
No no no no no no no no!
No no no no...
