I Bend To Him

(album: Drop Cherries - 2023)

I bend to him
He is the song that makes me sing
He is the sea I want to swim in
I bend to him

I wash my sins
In the water of his eyes
And he hears me when I cry
I wash my sins

He'll take me out when I need to be open
And put me in when I want to be led

Shed
And let him in

I bend to him

I wish I did not have the anger and the aching
And the ugliness I'm making
I wish I didn't
Pick, pick on you when I'm slipping to sour
When all the leaves have blown down from the trees

Please
With every limb
I bend to him

I blame him first
For the hunger and the thirst
For loving his worst
I blame him first
