Lyrics

THE BEGGAR

I BEGGED HER ON ONE KNEE
I KNELT ON BOTH INDEED
I CRIED AND PULLED MY HAIR
I SHOUTED IN DESPAIR

I GRABBED BY HER FEET
HER CLUMSY LITTLE FEET
I BEGGED HER “PLEASE DON'T LEAVE,
OH BABY PLEASE DON'T LEAVE”

I TORN MY CLOTHES
INTO RAGS
I WARNED HER WHO I WAS:
“I'M THE ONE WHO'S NEVER LEFT
BROKEN IN TWO WITHOUT REGRET,
CURSE YOU, CURSE YOU
IF YOU BREAK ME”

I BEGGED HER ON ONE KNEE
I I KNELT ON BOTH INDEED
I CRIED AND PULLED MY HAIR
I SHOUTED IN DESPAIR

I TORN MY CLOTHES
INTO RAGS
I WARNED HER WHO I WAS:
“I'M THE ONE WHO'S NEVER LEFT
BROKEN IN TWO WITHOUT REGRET,
I'M FAR, I'M FAR BEYOND THE SHAME”
