The love you give Is hand-me-down Threadbare Doesn't fit at all It's barely there When I beg for more you say Just be glad you have it But it's cold comfort in a storm Sometimes my tears Are all that keep me warm I tried to shake you off I fought it But you broke it babe So now you bought it Your mama should have taught you To take care of your things But your love takes more than it brings It pulls me apart at the seams And all my friends scold me Say that I hold on too tight I try to look contrite But if it's wrong I don't wanna be But if it's wrong I don't wanna be But if it's wrong And if I'm blind You can wear me out Wear me down Tear me up Tear me down Thought when you first saw me I'll cut him down to size Try to veil the light in my eyes But these rags Are my riches and my prize And my mama told me I'm why she can't sleep at night I try to look contrite But if it's wrong I don't wanna be If it's wrong I don't wanna be If it's wrong I don't wanna be And if I'm blind Got no use for sight
