The Taste of Bittersweet
To feel pleasure or to feel pain
funny how they feel the same
You butter me up and buy me a smile
the monster inside you I forget for a while
Tearful nights and angry dawns
yet you believe "nothing's wrong"
Close the wound and hide the scar
so no one knows who you really are
You say sorry countless times
playing your game and fooling my mind
So I build a fortress around my heart
walls like rock you can't tear apart
Let your fury rise and then fall
but I'll show you no fear behind my wall
They say love hurts and so I stay
but in the end a price you'll pay
