"Where Bitterness Is Born"

You would trade anything for her
She would trade you for anything
You try to work it out, she shuts you down
And you're still standing, standing

By her side through thick and thin
It's another war you didn't start
And she'll push you outside, behind enemy lines
Where you're fighting for her heart

And it's a testament to who you are
You care so much you couldn't leave
But I can't help but think
Just how much more you are deserving

You treat her like a princess
She carries on just like a queen
Commanding that and this, but you're a pacifist
You would never say a single thing

Could it be that you've invested
So much of yourself in this
To break it off right now, would tear your own heart out
The fallout consequence

And it's a testament to who you are
You care so much you couldn't leave
But I can't help but think
It might be the very thing you need

Yeah, cause where you place your heart
Reflects just who you are
Tangled up in a patch of thorns
That's where the bitterness is born

It's where the bitterness is born
You built your haven in a storm
That only gives to take
Leaving only destruction in its wake
When you're worth so much more
