The things you do make my temper rise
To think of you makes me despise you
To resume my life, I am inclined
To burn this worthless bridge behind with you
Don't let the sun go down on this anger
Don't let the sun go down on this hate
You've got to clean the slate
Although you've been pushed around
Can't let the bitterness remain
When the sun goes down
To fix a brokenness inside
You pushed me and my life aside from you
Despite my pride, I longed inside
Connecting, but have been denied by you
I know my intentions just might seem unclear
Unaware of the things that you've done
To make me disappear
But I know that it's wrapped up
In some kind of hurt or some kind of fear
May it make my heart soften
You turn your back on our shared blood
I guard myself and ones I love, from you
So I remain in your denial
May take a while to reconcile with you
Don't let the sun go down on this anger
Don't let the sun go down on this hate
You've got to clean the slate
Although you've been pushed around
Can't let the bitterness remain
When the sun goes down
