Stolen Gift

I loan you my soul
So we both can be whole
But you don't give it back
And the light fades to black

I loan you mind
The knot that we bind
Is twisting too tight
I can't sleep at night

I loan you my ear
So we both can hear
I loan you my eyes so we see
But you keep on shouting
And whining and pouting
Aiming all of your insults at me

I loan you my body
I loan you my heart
I have nothing left
Now I'm falling apart
