With Bitterness And Joy Lyrics - Crimson - Sentenced

It has now spread itself all over inside me 

all the way to the brain and down to my knees 

My time comes closer with each day it lets me see 

- with each night the pain keeps me from sleep 

Life has given me much - maybe taken more 

but those good times were always worth waiting for 

When it's time for goodbyes I will leave grieving and yet so relieved 

with bitterness and joy 

Pleasure and pain; Heaven and Hell - my memories 

What a long and strange trip this has been for me 

What a short and strange life this has been 

It has given me much - maybe taken more 

but those good times were always worth waiting for 

When it's time to take leave of this world 

I will leave with bitterness and joy 

What a long and strange trip this has been for me 

What a short and strange life this has been 

It has given me much - maybe taken more 

but those good times were always worth waiting for 

When it's time for goodbyes I will leave grieving and yet so relieved 

with bitterness and joy 

Life has given me much - maybe taken more 

but those good times were always worth waiting for 

When it's time to take leave of this world 

I will leave with bitterness and joy
