Bittersweet

[00:02.98] Oh, yeah
[00:09.83] I still think about how it used to be
[00:14.31] So entwined in my own lies, surrounded by this make believe
[00:20.71] I've been held by despondency
[00:25.35] I should have known the road I chose would run out on me
[00:30.67] Oh, oh no
[00:32.33] I could've faded, been jaded by every consequence
[00:35.13] Every word that you hurdled was part of my defense
[00:37.83] You can hurt me, desert me, it makes no difference
[00:40.61] I give as good as I get
[00:42.88] Like a weight falling from my shoulders
[00:44.73] I'm not gonna go that way again (never going back)
[00:47.53] When everybody said that my days were over
[00:50.23] Wouldn't get the time to comprehend (you should've known that)
[00:53.29] You should've known it would make me stronger
[00:55.55] I was never gonna fade away, don't you know that?
[00:59.70] I keep it coming, my destiny ain't running away from me
[01:02.95] Ain't it all so bittersweet? (oh yeah)
[01:09.09] In my life, I had no room for compromise
[01:13.88] There's things I've done that've been the ones that I have had to leave behind
[01:19.49] Look in my eyes, you will barely recognize
[01:24.69] The woman who depended on you to sing a little praise or criticize
[01:30.20] Oh-oh, no
[01:31.83] So I hide it, divide it 'bout what I feel inside (no, no, no)
[01:34.67] Now I take it or make it, I'm gonna be alright (be alright, oh)
[01:37.36] Whether you need me, believe me, you'll never hurt my pride
[01:40.07] Finally all this feels like
[01:42.01] Like a weight falling from my shoulders
[01:44.14] I'm not gonna go that way again (never going back)
[01:47.13] When everybody said that my days were over
[01:49.68] Wouldn't get the time to comprehend (you should've known that)
[01:52.72] You should've known it would make me stronger (known it made me stronger)
[01:54.95] I was never gonna fade away, don't you know that?
[01:58.89] I keep it coming, my destiny ain't running away from me
[02:02.04] Ain't it all so bittersweet?
[02:05.67]
[02:10.59] Look into my eyes, I won't be left behind
[02:15.45] Everything's gonna be fine and I have never felt like this
[02:21.96] I have no need to reminisce
[02:25.02] Those old days have gone and I keep holding on
[02:31.99] Like a weight falling from my shoulders
[02:33.97] I'm not gonna go that way again (never going back)
[02:36.69] When everybody said that my days were over
[02:39.12] Wouldn't get the time to comprehend (you should've known that)
[02:42.51] You should've known it would make me stronger
[02:44.62] I was never gonna fade away, don't you know that?
[02:48.59] I keep it coming, my destiny ain't running away from me
[02:51.86] Ain't it all so bittersweet?
[02:53.43] Like a weight falling from my shoulders
[02:55.54] I'm not gonna go that way again (go that way again, baby)
[02:58.55] When everybody said that my days were over
[03:01.00] Wouldn't get the time to comprehend (you should've known that)
[03:04.02] You should've known it would make me stronger (should've known, oh)
[03:06.24] I was never gonna fade away, don't you know that?
