Like a bird on the wire
Like a drunk in some old midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free

Like a worm on a hook
Like a monk bending over the book
It was the shape, the shape of our love, twisted me

If I have been unkind
I hope you can just let it go right on by
If I have been untrue
It's just that I thought a lover had to be some kind of liar too

[guitar solo]

Like a baby stillborn
Like a beast with his horn
I have torn everyone who reached out for me

But I swear, I swear by this song
I swear by all that I have done wrong
I will make it all up to thee

I saw a beggar
He was standing there on his wooden crutch
Cries out to me
"You must learn not to ask for so much"
