I'm  only half a soul
Oh, I give Myself to You
take My all
My everything
take all that I have
take the heart
that beats out the time
Your love fills my very being
but oh, how my heart is breaking
I told You I loved You
You gave not a care
Oh, how it tears
the very fibers of My soul
Oh, in My dreams of You
I try to hold Your hand
hold it so tight
but You slip from Me
and vanish into
the black and inky night
Oh, how I search for You
in My feverish quest
Oh, you are torn from My grasp
and I feel so lost
like a motherless child
Oh, I cut Myself
on pieces
of My own jagged soul
Oh, the wound so deep
and the pain so sharp
from those pieces
those jagged pieces
You tore from My soul
Oh, I gave You My love
and You treated Me so unkind
Oh, let Me die
and sink to the bottom of the sea
to hide Myself
from the pain and heart ache
you caused Me to bear
far from Your loveless pride
