Bitter

Tattered clothes loose change

Bank notes I know

Hidden tears cold face

10 toes she knows

Heartbreak so close

What's next who knows

God knows how she does it alone

Late nights small meals

Tucked in I feel

Face down rough hands

No time to heal

Short breath unfed

Round goes the wheel

Knees down, does He hear?

Now she's all alone

And the lights have gone

And life's bitter, yes it hit her

Not the way she hoped

Yeah, it's tough it shows

Trading highs for lows

Doctors visits, yeah, she did it

Drinking all his pills now

Night falls it's cold

Her will it fades

Church halls feel small

No pain no gain

No one to hold

Please stop this train

One match to spark

Now she's all alone

And the lights have gone

And life's better, yes it hit her

Not the way she hoped

Yeah, it's tough it shows

Trading highs for lows

Doctors visits, yeah, she did it

Drinking all his pills now

I'm cracking this is too real

She packs her heart up and deals

With time I hope she'll be free

She's earned it honestly

Now she's all alone

And the lights have gone

And life's better, yes it hit her

Not the way she hoped

Yeah, it's tough it shows

Trading highs for lows

Doctors visits, yeah, she did it

Drinking all his pills

Now she's all alone

And the lights have gone

And life's better, yes it hit her

Not the way she hoped

Yeah, it's tough it shows

Trading highs for lows

Doctors visits, yeah, she did it

Drinking all his pills now
