Lyrics
Bitter Love
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.
God fears evil has returned to earth
As a guardian of light I'm sent to intervene
For the balance must not be disturbed
Protecting petty people who don't believe
Who don't know how to love
Takes its toll
I was a preacher
Traveled coast to coast with God's embrace
Cared for the weaker
Shedding light and love in evil ways
But there's just something about her darkness
I'm such a sinner
I was born through fire
Drinking flames
I can't remember ever looking for another way
But there's just something about his glory
I fear my heart has gone to war
A pilgrim searching for a distant shore
Don't want to fight
Don't want to fall
No way to stop
Nowhere to go
Bitter love, bitter love
Spider bite, the venom makes us stronger
Bitter love, bitter love
Kingdom come with twenty lashes for us
Such is our love
My heart is burning
Can I save her from the dark embrace?
Blizzards and yearning
Can I make him turn from heaven's grace?
How far is far enough for treason?
I fear my heart has gone to war
A pilgrim searching for a distant shore
Don't want to fight
Don't want to fall
No way to stop
Nowhere to go
Bitter love, bitter love
Spider bite, the venom makes us stronger
Bitter love, bitter love
Kingdom come with twenty lashes for us
Such is our love
Such tangled web you weave
How wicked it must seem
Hide by the curtains
A window to the ghost of you
My heart is burning
My heart is burning
With the wrath of God
I'll strike you down, you dragon's crowned
I'll make you pay the price for what you've done
Go back where you belong
You'll strike me down
Done for you
I don't want to fight
But this task is not in vain
As down on earth there is a familiar rein
Friend or foe?
Who knows?
I vaguely remember that black september
