Bitter

Wrapped up. Spat out in your self doubt

Should I rip my heart out

Pack it up and send it to you

Things said in anger

Said for gain

Said to cut down

I'll never hear again

Well a part of me sees it all too clear

But another part still burns

For the safety, for the comfort

But our hate outgrew our love and ate it

I can see it started years ago

And I recognise your pain

But I can't forget the innocence

That you've taken from me

Now I see you

But I can't hear you

No - I can't hate you

No - And I don't want to break you down

There's just some things that I want to tell you

Now that you're not hear to drown me out

I've just got to break through

I collect the poison as it spills from your mouth

Savour the taste so that I may work you out

When affection becomes affliction

Let it go

Been watching for far too long

Far too long to get this wrong

I've got the scars to prove it

Snap straight back and I'm here to use it

Delay the memory of the facts and what's outside

Left with your mind, the only place to hide

'cause you're so bitter inside
