Bonnie 'Prince' Billy - I Gave You lyrics

I gave you a child and you didn't want it That's the most that I have to give I gave you a house and you didn't haunt it Now where am I supposed to live? I gave you a tree and you did not embrace it I gave you a nightmare and you did not chase it I'd give you a dream and you'd only wake from it Now I'll never go to sleep again I'd give you a choice and you'd only take from it Look at the hole where j**elry had been Baby, oh baby, why must you escape from it? This love that we once called our friend I gave you my body and you had a-plenty I gave you ten lives and you wasted twenty Now I'm standing empty, helpless and bare Without a morsel left of me to give And you, you had vanished into the air The air in which I must live
