Bittersweet

S Club

I still think about how it used to be 
So entwined in my own lies, surrounded by this make believe 
I've been held by despondency 
I should have known the road I chose would run out on me (oh no) 

I could've faded 
Been jaded 
By every consequence 
Every word that you hurdled 
Was part of my defence 
You can hurt me 
Desert me 
It makes no difference 

I give as good as I get 

Like a weight falling from my shoulders 
I'm not going to go that way again 
When everybody said that my days were over 
Would'nt get the time to comprehend 
You should've known it would make me stronger 
I was never gonna fade away 
I keep it coming, my destiny aint running away from me 
And it's all so bittersweet 

In my life, I had no room for comprimise 
The things I've done have been the ones I have had to leave behind 
Look in my eyes, you barely recognise 
The woman who depended on you to sing a little praise or criticise (oh no) 

So I hide it 
Divide it 
Bout what I feel inside 
Now I take it 
Or make it 
I'm gonna be alright 
Whether you need me 
Believe me 
You'll never hurt my pride 

Finally all this feels like 

Like a weight falling from my shoulders 
I'm not going to go that way again 
When everybody said that my days were over 
Would'nt get the time to comprehend 
You should've known it would make me stronger 
I was never gonna fade away 
I keep it coming, my destiny aint running away from me 
And it's all so bittersweet 

Look into my eyes 
I wont be left behind 
Everything's going to be fine 
And I have never felt like this 
I have no need to reminisce 
Those old days have gone 
And I keep holding on 

Like a weight falling from my shoulders 
I'm not going to go that way again 
When everybody said that my days were over 
Would'nt get the time to comprehend 
You should've known it would make me stronger 
I was never gonna fade away 
I keep it coming, my destiny aint running away from me 
And it's all so bittersweet 

Like a weight falling from my shoulders 
I'm not going to go that way again 
When everybody said that my days were over 
Would'nt get the time to comprehend 
You should've known it would make me stronger 
I was never gonna fade away 
I keep it coming, my destiny aint running away from me 
And it's all so bittersweet 

Like a weight falling from my shoulders 
I'm not going to go that way again 
When everybody said that my days were over 
Would'nt get the time to comprehend 
You should've known it would make me stronger 
I was never gonna fade away 
I keep it coming, my destiny aint running away from me 
And it's all so bittersweet 

(Fade)
