why do i

i started up with nothing

still got most of it left

almost enough to convince myself

i've been doing my best

i got so much potential

but i sit on my hands

and i cross every line

just to proof that i can

going broke

saving money

laugh all you want to

but baby it ain't funny

i know you mean well i don't know why it hurts

i stand out in the rain dying of thirst

oh why

why do i beg you to love me

when i know i can't win

why do i beg you to stay

when i won't let you in

well i got no good excuse

hmmm then i give you one or two

it was always from the start

i'd have already sever all the ties to my heart

i am begging on my boots to fall to my feet

oh i walk through the fire but i can't stand the heat

oh why

why do i beg you to love me

when i know i can't win

why do i beg you to stay

when i won't let you in

oh you're damned if you do and damned if you don't

cause i can't let you love me and i won't let you go

oh why

why do i beg you to love me

when i know i can't win

why do i beg you to stay

when i won't let you

why do i beg you to love me

when i can't let you oh

can you tell me why i beg you to stay

when i won't let you in

i won't let you in

oh yeah
