Mostly Bitter

I have been burned and maltreated much of my life,

sweet is gone, leaving mostly bitter.

But I came here as a Christian man,

tried it once, will try it again,

cause we know how god hates a quitter.

I loved only you, but you left me just the same.

Left me alive, off on the side,

with my desperate, unread love letters.

you have started again, shrugged off the shame

of being inside the skin of a quitter.
