If this is heaven, then I'm in hell
If trust is misfortune, then wish me well

While I think of sadness, baby
Your light shines through
Your light shines through
Your light shines through

[Chorus]
Because it's beggar's day
Because it's beggar's day
Because it's beggar's day

I've lost control of my darker side
A world, all for free on a nastier ride

And I have crossed myself in anger
All your mercy can't save me
All your mercy can't save me
All your mercy can't save me

Because it's beggar's day
Because it's beggar's day
Because it's beggar's day

It's beggar's day
You know it's beggar's day
Because it's beggar's day

See this love I've stored for you
Wheel it and deal it, but our feelings are true

And I have crossed myself in anger
All your mercy can't save me
All your mercy can't save me
All your mercy can't save me

[Chorus x 2]
