Bittersweet

[00:02.42] Oh, yeah
[00:09.26] I still think about how it used to be
[00:15.06] So entwined in my own lies, surrounded by this make-believe
[00:21.01] I've been held by despondency
[00:24.75] I should have known the road I chose would run out on me
[00:30.25] Oh, oh no
[00:31.83] I could've faded, been jaded by every consequence (no, no, no)
[00:35.78] Every word that you hurdled was part of my defence (not so you know)
[00:38.44] You can hurt me, desert me, it makes no difference
[00:41.19] I give as good as I get
[00:43.12] Like a weight falling from my shoulders
[00:45.34] I'm not gonna go that way again
[00:47.68] (Never going back) when everybody said that my days were over
[00:49.65] Wouldn't get the time to comprehend (you should've)
[00:52.83] (Known that) you should've known it would make me stronger
[00:56.13] I was never gonna fade away (hey, hey, hey), don't you know that?
[00:59.68] I keep it comin', my destiny ain't runnin' away from me
[01:03.35] Ain't it all so bittersweet?
[01:06.46] (Oh yeah)
[01:08.37] In my life, had no room for compromise
[01:14.32] There's things I've done that've been the ones
[01:16.72] That I have had to leave behind
[01:19.81] Look in my eyes, you will barely recognise
[01:25.14] The woman who depended on you to sing a little praise or criticise
[01:30.56] Oh no
[01:32.22] So I hide it, divide it 'bout what I feel inside (no, no, no)
[01:35.02] Now I take it or make it, I'm gonna be alright (be alright, oh)
[01:37.73] Whether you need me, believe me, you'll never hurt my pride
[01:40.41] Finally all this feels like
[01:41.47] Like a weight falling from my shoulders
[01:44.72] I'm not gonna go that way again
[01:46.03] (Never going back) when everybody said that my days were over
[01:49.03] Wouldn't get the time to comprehend (you should've)
[01:52.18] (Known that) you should've known it would make me stronger
[01:55.15] (You know it made me stronger) I was never gonna fade away (hey)
[01:56.89] (Hey, hey) don't you know that?
[01:58.94] I keep it comin', my destiny ain't runnin' away from me
[02:01.69] Ain't it all so bittersweet?
[02:04.94]
[02:11.17] Look into my eyes, I won't be left behind
[02:16.58] Everything's gonna be fine
[02:19.18] And I have never felt like this, I have no need to reminisce
[02:25.50] Those old days have gone and I keep holdin' on
[02:32.33] Like a weight falling from my shoulders
[02:34.57] I'm not gonna go that way again
[02:35.76] (Never going back) when everybody said that my days were over
[02:39.96] Wouldn't get the time to comprehend (you should've)
[02:42.01] (Known that) you should've known it would make me stronger
[02:45.34] I was never gonna fade away (hey, hey, hey), don't you know that?
[02:48.82] I keep it comin', my destiny ain't runnin' away from me
[02:51.47] Ain't it all so bittersweet?
[02:53.01] Like a weight falling from my shoulders
[02:55.15] I'm not gonna go that way again
[02:58.58] (Baby) when everybody said that my days were over
[03:00.33] Wouldn't get the time to comprehend (you should've)
[03:04.59] (Known that) you should've known it would make me stronger
[03:06.75] (Should've known) I was never (oh) gonna fade away (hey)
[03:08.36] (Hey, hey) don't you know that?
[03:10.41] I keep it comin', my destiny ain't runnin' away from me
[03:12.98] Ain't it all so bittersweet?
[03:14.67] Like a weight falling from my shoulders (alright)
[03:17.79] I'm not gonna go (oh yeah) that way again
[03:20.11] (Go your way) when everybody said that my days were over
[03:23.00] Wouldn't get the time to comprehend (you should've)
[03:25.12] (Known that) you should've known it made me stronger
[03:28.39] I was never gonna fade away (hey, hey, hey), don't you know that?
[03:32.06] I keep it comin', my destiny ain't runnin' away from me
[03:35.42] Ain't it all so bittersweet?
