Beggar's Guild

Oh put it on, take it off real quick

On the bottom of the pile, I’m feeling sick

You never cross my mind, not by baby night, no-

You keep me in the beggar’s guild

So I sleep all day and I dream all night

With the bottle in my hand I take the devil’s side

I smile real big just to keep it hid

Oh, the truth about my lack of will

So I run like hell from the city’s glow

I lose my name, I pass before the folks I used to know

If I go far away from the city grates

And the long reach of the government

Oh all alone in a cold north sea

In the blue sky above a plane flew over me

The banner it pulled said “you are a fool,”

“Did you really think you’d ever win?”

I’m taking off my dirty skin

There is nothing to refute my sin

I fear no one

I fear no one but you

Don't care no, no

I lie only to tell the truth (no)

Oh the steep demands of the higher call

Oh you pawned all the words so the cogs won’t stall

I burned my clothes and I gut my soul

And pretend that I was never born (ah yeah)

Oh my oh my, look what you have done

Spit your head out on the floor like you’re the chosen one.

I give her my heart but she wanted no part

So I sold it to an antique store

So I dug a hole four thousand miles down

To the center of the earth where I will not be found

Memories of the moon singing see you soon

Oh I was always partial to the sun

I was picked up by two men of the law

They said we’re taking you downtown, forget about your call

Hell’s no place for a wandering face

Go take it up with beelzebub

You laugh as you pull out the rug

I was never really much in love

I fear no one

I fear no one but you

Don't care no, no

I lie only to tell the truth (no)
