breathe in sharply

shifting battle victor

held to the light

water pouts from holes

beg for more time

beg for what you love

beg for me

beg for yourself.

a bucket of a man

in nobody i trust

nothing but the dollar

not even mirrors

beg for more time

beg for what you love

beg for me

beg for yourself.

no future when we get there

had reservations for years

kicking and screaming

on my hands and knees

beg for more time

beg for what you love

beg for me

beg for yourself.

live a story to tell

hold my hand

hold my hair back

do you trust me?

beg for more time

beg for what you love

beg for me

beg for yourself.

kisses with fists

fighting for love

a fight to survive

my mutual destruction

beg for more time

beg for what you love

beg for me

beg for yourself.
