lyrics

Bitter

I can’t let it go
The thought that you will never know
The pain that you put me through
For sharing my love with you
Now I run from tender eyes
Scared that’s you in disguise
And I know you carried on
No repentance for what you’ve done

So bitter - no remorse from you
Oh bitter - no shame from you

Your cruelty you said I misunderstood
You said it was for my own good
So you tried to keep me down
So you could wear your crown
I gave you all my love
‘cause that you had little of
But that love you threw away
And I was left to pay

So bitter - no guilt from you
Oh bitter - no regret from you

I know the price you’ll pay
Your lovers they will walk away
Your cross is not for them to bear
But surely you don’t care
Left with a bitter taste
A vengeful seed now you have placed
And I wish I could let it go
But the thought that you’ll never know

Leaves me bitter - no remorse from you
Oh bitter - no shame from you
