Bitter Servant

When sadness came
You were not there for me
When I called your name
You had nothing to say
Under blackened skies
I stood my ground alone
Tears ran from my eyes
But you never wiped them dry
When the rain fell
I found no shelter in you
When I was in hell
I was given no outstretched hand
On the coldest nights
You never called me in
Shivers ran down my spine
But you never embraced me

When darkness came
I was there for you
When you called my name
I heard everything you had to say
When your fears closed in
You never had to face them alone
Tears ran from your eyes
And I always wiped them dry
When everything fell
I became a shelter for you
When the storm would not quell
I held you in my arms
When you were alone at night
I came and embraced you
I turned on the light
I brought you in

I keep coming back
I keep coming back to your steps
Like a wretched dog
Like a bitter servant

I keep coming back
I keep coming back to your door
Like a wretched dog
Like a bitter servant

I keep coming back
I keep coming back to your feet
Like a wretched dog
Like a bitter servant

I keep coming back
I keep coming back to you
Like a fucking wretch
Like a bitter servant
