Bitter Steps

Dm            C          Bb
This is why I learned to walk
    Bb            C      F
For these belated bitter steps

     Dm                     C     Bb
Your last words still throb in my throat
   Bb            C       F
A lingering move in the cracks

     Dm             C      Bb
Time weighs heavier in the dark
Bb                C      F
Upon my mind than in the light

Dm                C      Bb
Stars are bruises on the sky
    Bb             C           F
The dawn bites the pupil-dark night

  Dm                 C        Bb
I bear the wounds of all the fights
Bb        C      F
I avoided in the past

  Dm                 C       Bb
I bear the wounds of all the fights
Bb        C      F
I avoided in the past
