Slashs Snakepit - Beggars & Hangers on lyrics

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
