"Bitter Life"

As broken as I am
I know that I am justified
In saying, come down off your high
Horse, you're just the same as I
We're only human after all
And it's your proving attitude
That runs me dry

Preaching from afar
But never hearing anything
I don't need a healer
All I needed was a friend
But no one wants to know
Just want to act like they know
Driving me to the end

[chorus]
And ooh, it's a bitter life
When the ones who're in the wrong know what's right
And ooh, it's a bitter life
When the arrows pierce the heel from your own side

Please remove your crown
Before coming here to me
Cause iron sharpens iron
But yours only makes me bleed
Cause the low need to be low
All the broken in their need
So leave me be

[chorus]
And ooh, it's a bitter life
When the ones who're in the wrong know what's right
And ooh, it's a bitter life
When the arrows pierce the heel from your own side

You cripple me
And I cripple you, too
You're no good for me
And I'm no good for you
Blinded by a light
That never wanted to last
But the part that hurts the worst
Is that you never cared to ask

Ooh, it's a bitter life
Ooh, it's a bitter life
And we're the ones who've got to make it right
