I Broke In Two

Forgive me
I cannot stay
He cut out my tongue
There is nothing to say

Love me, oh lord
He threw me away
He laughed at my sins yet, in his arms I must stay

He wrote;
'I am broke
Please send for me'
But, I am broken too
And spoken for
Do not tempt me

Her skin is white and I am as 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 although I begged him to stay
Left me alone, when I needed the light
Fell to my knees and I wept for my life
If he had of stayed, you might understand
If he had of stayed, you never would've taken my hand

He wrote;
'I am low
Please send for me'
And I broke in two

And where is the lamb that gave you your name?
He had to leave although I begged him to stay
Begged him to stay in my cold wooden grip
Begged him to stay by the light of the ship
Me fighting him, fighting light, fighting dawn
Yet the waves came and stole him and took him to war

Forgive me
Here I cannot stay
Cut out my tongue, there is nothing to say

We write
That's alright
I miss his smell
We speak,
When spoken to
That suits us well
That suits us well
That suits me well
