Bitter Crop<br />

(Music & Lyrics: A. Tito)<br />

<br />

An eye's blink and seeds have grown<br />

Seasons pass and time has come, but<br />

We both know the reasons why<br />

It's so hard to face the harvest<br />

<br />

Made of lies and weakness<br />

Hate and so much more<br />

An unfinished business<br />

With an ending carved in stone<br />

<br />

And the crop is still there<br />

For the crows to pluck<br />

For the wind to gather<br />

For the sun to burn and rot<br />

<br />

So the reaping's to be done<br />

Not a chance to change my mind, for <br />

Alibis are gone<br />

Not a chance to leave it all behind<br />

<br />

Ready or not - Reason or fault<br />

Before the dawn - Our work's to be done<br />

<br />

Get a grip and roll the sickle<br />

You'll be reaping what you've sown<br />

In the end, all you get is<br />

Nothing but a bitter crop<br />

<br />

And we knew it all before<br />

Didn't hear our little good sense<br />

Now our hands are full<br />

Actions have their consequences<br />

<br />

All the truths unspoken<br />

Whispered in the cold<br />

As tormented children<br />

Lost and beaten by the storm<br />

<br />

Said in two words - It's simply wrong<br />

This nature's course - Wondering on<br />

Ready or not - Reason or fault<br />

Before the dawn - Our work's to be done<br />

<br />

Get a grip and roll the sickle<br />

You'll be reaping what you've sown<br />

In the end, all you get is<br />

Nothing but a bitter crop
