Bend Lyrics - Replace Why With Funny - Dear Reader

If you do not bend you will eventually break 

Unless you make the wind stop blowing your way 

We were like two kids blowing on each other with two straws 

Only I was willing to stop and listen to yours 

You say you do not want me because I want too much 

And I almost let you patronize me one last time 

But I don't want too much I just want more than you've got 

So the lack is not with either, we are merely a different size 

Don't forget regret it is a waste of an emotion 

And acceptance is the key to peace, do not try to defy her 

No I'm not sad we met and slept together in the same bed 

I bent, I curved, I lent, I learnt, I'm stronger 

You did not do me wrong, in fact you did me right 

To let me go although I felt so broken 

For you did not see the heart of me perhaps you were too lazy 

And though I tried I could not gain the heart of you either 

So now it's done and I am glad that I will find another man 

Though you will always be the first I tasted 

And I will harness all this pain and let it bear me far away 

I would not let this happening be wasted 

If you do not bend you will eventually break 

Unless you make the wind stop blowing away 

And we were like two kids blowing on each other with two straws 

Only I was willing to stop and listen to yours
