Lyrics
Bitter Tears
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
look away,
look away from the past
think ahead,
think ahead so you'll last another day
and the days are so long
and you'll get by
but gettin' by is just another way to say half dead
and you think you'd rather live your life instead
of just gettin' by
don't you know,
don't you know its bound to keep you up all night
wonderin' where and how it all went wrong that night
it all went wrong
so keep in mind
keep in mind you're not to blame
bitter tears
bitter tears can fall like rain
on your frields
and those fields need that rain
so look away
and think ahead
and live your life
and cry those tears
cry bitter tears...
