It took me years to find

True mind at peace

And now you treat me like

They approve me

You're my poem, yes you know

Yet you stole my way

Just to know this, you told me

You were late

When you would call, I would hold

And I still remain

Then you led me to believe that's what you wanted

Pay my debts away, pay my debts

Pay my debts away

Pay my debts away, pay my debts

Pay my debts away

True love, but I'd see you

Treat me more like you

And I'd try to heal it

But I feel so thrown back

Take my hand, in the cold

In the snow, but you do not break

But they told you, convinced you

Think I'd play

But I know myself better than you do

Pay my debts away, pay my debts

Pay my debts away

Pay my debts away, pay my debts

Pay my debts away

May, May calling slow

Finally in a dress that meant money in the bank

Drinking hard so you can't feel the warmth of the arms

So you dreamt, fade away

Take my hand, I paid my fine

In the park, in the dark, when you said my name

On the bench, when I felt that you smiled

And you said there, that child

Pay my debts away, pay my debts

Pay my debts away

Pay my debts away, pay my debts

Pay my debts away

Pay my debts away, pay my debts

Pay my debts away

Pay my debts away, pay my debts

Pay my debts away
