Cactus In The Valley Lyrics

I never meant to wither
I wanted to be tall
Like a fool left the river
And watched my branches fall
Old and thirsty, I longed for the flood
To come back around
To the cactus in the valley
That's about to crumble down

And wipe the mark...

    General Comment:
    This song IS about Lights relationship with God. She answered my question on reddit and told me it was in reference mostly to Psalm 1 (specifically the first line). I understand that lots of her fans are not christians and so for some reason they get angry when people try to claim her songs are about anything religious but I think it's beautiful that she isn't afraid to show her faith.
