Bitter

Written by Amy Alvey and Rachel Baiman (ASCAP) Mild Windigo Publishing A/V: Trent Freeman Filmed at Janaki Larsen Studios, Vancouver, BC Things that remind me of dreams now behind me Conveniently hidden from sight For the time and the money it would almost be funny If I could just sleep through the night CHORUS: But I’m bitter Bitter as they come Bitter as the cold northern sun I’m a quitter Easy said and done At the end of the day I lay down my gun I had a vision a kind of religion What makes life worth living should pay But I found no reason nothing to believe in Just men getting rich in my shade CHORUS I’ve been used like a jukebox and played like a stage prop I’ve shouldered it all and walked on The drum I was beating got lost in its meaning How hardened my heart has become I’m bitter as bitter does Once it was written the machine has grown smitten Rolling stone said that I would go far But the dog still needs feeding and with ends hardly meeting I stopped counting on my lucky stars CHORUS Now I’m bitter I’m bitter Now I’m bitter I’m bitter
