Beg for Me Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Everyone is looking at me!
I can't get out of bed there is evil in my head
Everyone just let me be!
Because when I hit the stage, it is gone and I am free

[Chorus]
Goddamn, you say you'll get up for me!
You're the crowd, come on give it back to me!
You won't beg for me, beg for me, beg for me!

Goddamn, you say you'll get up with me!
You're the crowd, come on give it back to me!
You won't beg for me, be there for me, beg for me!

[Verse 2]
Tell me, how could this fade?
I am going insane, and I could not have my pain
Everyone, please let me be!
‘Cause when I hit the stage, and it is gone, and I am free

[Chorus]
Goddamn, you say you'll get up for me!
You're the crowd, come on give it back to me!
You won't beg for me, beg for me, beg for me!
Goddamn, you say you'll get up with me!
You're the crowd, come on give it back to me!
You won't beg for me, be there for me, beg for me!
[Verse 3]
I feel the shame I'm not insane!
The things I feel now aren't the same!
Who gives a fuck, if my life sucks?
I just know one day I won't give up!
Everyone just let me be
Everyone just let me be
Everyone just let me be

[Chorus]
Goddamn, you say you'll get up for me!
You're the crowd, come on give it back to me!
You won't beg for me, beg for me, beg for me!
Goddamn, you say you'll get up with me!
You're the crowd, come on give it back to me!
You won't beg for me, be there for me, beg for me!

Goddamn, you say you'll get up for me!
You're the crowd, come on give it back to me!
You won't beg for me, beg for me, beg for me!
Goddamn, you say you'll get up with me!
You're the crowd, come on give it back to me!
You won't beg for me, beg for me, beg for me!

[Outro]
Be there, for me
Be there, for me
Be there, for me
Be there, for me

He says that he’s happy because playing music for his fans is what helps him feel better for the hour and a half that he performs. After that he goes back to being miserable again but it just feels so good to have his pain go away for that short time.
