Borrow Me Lyrics - Lori Mckenna

This is cold and dark, this place 

You are broken, what will replace 

The hole that has been dug here 

Emptiness left where 

Once I was so aware 

Aware of you 

You are quiet, you are meek 

Unlike me so indiscreet 

I am plainly alone 

Once you open up, you close 

I fell, I'm winning, then I don't know 

Who you are

You came to me so battered and alone 

You wondered how to go on 

Life is unforgiving 

And you need to forgive 

Well look at me, your childhood friend 

Who's never had the trouble to be stepped on 

I wish you'd see 

That you can borrow me 

So push me where you want 

Let in all the ghosts to haunt 

I welcome such trouble 

But what if things don't change 

And you find yourself to blame 

For all this alone 

Photos 

Well I have listened to your silence 

These walls are beaming with forgiveness 

You are up and then you're down 

But mostly you're somewhere in-between 

You should be free 

Until then borrow me 

Borrow me 

Carry your troubles so heavy 

Over your heart and then through me 

Your mind's a separate matter 

When your eyes are blind, I see 

When your voice is swallowed, I speak free 

And love you like I do 

Well I am not an angel 

Sent from heaven to save your soul 

I am just a no good sinner 

Who loves you more than life 

You could be free 

Wouldn't you rather borrow me?
