Forgive me,
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 sense, in his arms i must
stay.

He wrote, I'm broke.
Please send for me.
But I'm 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 [bad word] 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, and i wept from my
life

If he had offstage, you might
understand.
If he had offstage, you never would've
taken my hand.

He wrote,
I'm low.
Please send for me.
but I'm 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 life,
fighting dawn.
and waves came,
and stole him,
and took him toward.

He wrote,
I'm broke.
Please send for me.
but I'm broken too,
and spoken for.
Do not, tempt me.

Forgive me, hero, 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 sense, in his arms i must
stay.

We write.
That's alright.
I miss his smell.

we speak,
when spoken to.
That suits us well.

We write.
and that's alright.
but I miss his smell.

and i speak, when spoken to,
'cause that suits me well.
That suits me well.
