Bitter
If I could make it easy
than it meant nothing
If I could take it back
than it wouldn't be important
maybe I don't want to forget
because it keeps me aware
if I can still taste the bitter
than I am still unchanged
I never had all of you
you were just too busy
maybe I didn't want to give myself up either
so making excuses always sounded better
no one leaped, we stood at the edge and stared
not into each other's eyes but off in a distance
so maybe I don't miss you
I miss the idea of us
so if I am bitter
it's because this chip on my shoulder hasn't been removed
we both wasn't ready
we were too bitter to ever be sweet
maybe one day that won't be the case
but that doesn't make me feel no better
I had a chance not to be bitter....
