A debt is an obligation owed by one party (the debtor) to a second party, the creditor; usually this refers to assets granted by the creditor to the debtor, but the term can also be used metaphorically to cover moral obligations and other interactions not based on economic value.
A debt is created when a creditor agrees to lend a sum of assets to a debtor. Debt is usually granted with expected repayment; in modern society, in most cases, this includes repayment of the original sum, plus interest.
In finance, debt is a means of using anticipated future purchasing power in the present before it has actually been earned. Some companies and corporations use debt as a part of their overall corporate finance strategy.
The word comes from the French dette and ultimately Latin debere (to owe), from de habere (to have). The letter b in the word debt was reintroduced in the 18th century, possibly by Samuel Johnson in his Dictionary of 1755 – several other words that had existed without a b had them reinserted at around that time.

Wish you could take away all the pain
While you're at it take the pleasure then
And as you lie
Cover your treausures thin
Heros find no friend in heroin
And once again
The hero's overtaken by the heroin
Yes once again
The hero's overtaken by the heroin
And its just for with an awful lot of love
And it's just for a girl
Who hasn't know him very long
Met her years ago, knew it would take a while
To linger in her breath, to wake up in her smile
And it's just for a boy just for a girl
Just for a girl just for the boy
Just for the boy just for a girl
Just for a girl just for the boy

If I don't bang my head against your wall
I know that you won't catch me
If I don't bang my head against your wall
I know that you won't catch me
