[01:00.76]Well I know, you couldn't love me
[01:08.23]cause you're promised to a wealthy man
[01:16.02]take a look, what are you seeing?
[01:22.82]is that a noose or a wedding band


[01:30.88]Should i go to see a healer
[01:38.66]nervous twitchin' in my hands
[01:53.04]nervous twitchin' in my head


[02:00.45]God help me rid this feelin'
[02:05.84]cause i'm fallin' to pieces
[02:10.25]and i can't get out of bed


[02:14.14]Beggars and hangers-on
[02:16.89]try to take you from me
[02:21.00]someone with a bible in his pocket
[02:23.35]clouding everything you see


[02:26.71]Beggars and hangers-on
[02:29.71]they chip it away
[02:33.14]bury your soul in the river
[02:35.80]cause the end is here to stay


[02:51.39]God help me rid this feelin'
[02:57.04]cause i'm fallin' to pieces
[03:00.17]and i can't get out of bed


[03:09.28]I was wrong i don't need you
[03:16.72]it seems reckless and unfair
[03:23.87]better days
[03:26.98]are far behind
[03:30.71]guess that's another cross i'll have to bear


[04:09.12]I know that there's a time and a reason
[04:17.10]to take the ghost and lock it up inside
[04:24.43]and maybe i am down
[04:27.33]but i'm not beaten
[04:30.59]like anything
[04:32.46]we were born to die


[04:37.25]Beggars and hangers-on
[04:39.99]try to take you from me
[04:43.49]someone with a bible in his pocket
[04:46.00]clouding everything you see


[04:49.57]Beggars and hangers-on
[04:52.29]they chip it away
[04:55.39]bury your soul in the river
[04:58.34]cause the end is here to stay


[05:02.50]Beggars and hangers on
[05:08.36]beggars and hangers on
[05:15.35]no no no no
[05:21.68]no no no no
[05:26.24]no no no no
