I'm not a bag,
I'm not an old hag,
I'm not bad,
I'm nothing.
I'm not a bag,
Don't throw lying love

In me.
Don't throw anything.
I'm not a bag.
Don't put your hand in,
Carress it,
Just to jerk it out.
You used me as a bag,
You put lying love in
You put veiled ire and hatred
You put hope in.
Then you took the handle,
Threw more in,
And flipped the bag.
You double checked it was empty,
And then you left.
