What He Wrote

Forgive me Hera, I cannot stay
He cut out my tongue, there is nothing to save
Love me oh lord, he threw me away
He laughed at my sins, in his arms I must stay
He wrote, I'm broke, please send for me
But I am broken too and spoken for, do not tempt me

Her skin is white and I'm light as the Sun
So holy light shines on the things you have done
So I asked him how he became this man
How did he learn to hold fruit in his hands
And where is the lamb that gave you your name
He had to leave though I begged him to stay

Left me alone when I needed the light
Fell to my knees I wept for my life
If he had of stayed you might understand
If he had of stayed you never would have never taken my hand
He wrote I am low please send for me
But I am broken too and spoken for, do not tempt me

And where is the lamb that gave you your name
He had to leave though I begged him to stay
Begged him to stay in my cold wooden grip
Begged him to stay by the light of this ship

Me fighting him fighting light fighting dawn
The waves came and stole him and took him to war
He wrote I'm broke, please send for me
But I am broken too, and spoken for, do not tempt me

Forgive me Hera, I cannot stay
He cut out my tongue, there is nothing to save
Love me oh lord, he threw me away
He laughed at my sins, in his arms I must stay
We write, that's all right, I miss his smell
We speak when spoken to, that suits us well
That suits us well, that suits me well
