"Bitterness"

Bitterness
Sows so deep
You only reap, much more of it
Than you could ever dream
Thought you could dip your feet in
But find yourself downstream

And all the tears you shed
Like fire falling out your burning head
Thought you'd be safe, instead
Your old scars are now the new wounds, freshly bled

Your heart can only take so much
Before you finally side and give it up
Couldn't have guessed it'd ever be this tough
But selfishness and lonliness, a mix that makes your heart erupt

So take it all
And give it up

Bitterness
Sows so deep
You only reap, much more of it
Than you could ever dream
Thought you could dip your feet in
But find yourself downstream

All the initial pain
So distant, hidden behind the new wall of shame
What made you ever turn around that day
And made you want to live your life this way

And if it hurt so bad
Why not try making someone understand
That's yesterday, and you can't get it back
But it's the past so you can still move past

And move away from all the
Bitterness
Sows so deep
You only reap, much more of it
Than you could ever dream
Thought you could dip your feet in
But the current's always stronger than it seems

Some traps you can't get out of
Unless you take the route of love
And when push comes to shove
Turn the other cheek, cause there's no need to run
Yeah there's no need to run
