lyrics

He didn’t relent when tensions rose
He could’ve withdrawn, instead he chose
To stand up and fight, absorb the blows
He’s a bitter man than I

He isn’t a monster deep inside
But temperatures rise, then don’t subside
The truth hurts, and so he lied
He’s a bitter man than I

Ties either bind
Or just unwind

He’s losin’ it all, his wife, his mind
Tearing up documents he signed
Dimming the lights that used to shine
He’s a bitter man than I

Liquor’s the chicken and the egg
It cost him his soul, an arm, a leg
Follow the liter, fall, renege
He’s a bitter man than I

It seems to ease
But just deceives

It started to fall so long ago
Domino after domino
If you had to face what he’s been through
You’d be bitter too

Whatever don't kill ya makes ya strong
He kept telling himself that all along
Only to find it’s just plain wrong
He's a bitter man than I
