Lyrics
Bittersweet
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Once upon a time it was easy
Everything kind of fell into place
Now this feeling won't leave me
We lost the power and we lost the pace
It's staring straight between the eyes
Something isn't right
The harder we try the more we realise
Something isn't right
Ch: - So bittersweet, this whole thing
So bitter sweet
Caught in this struggle for power
Where only blood ever tastes sweet
Everything else is so sour
The numbing failures and defeats
The loner's not a western hero
With nerves of steel and a heart of gold
But here alone in the disco
Icy cold
But there's always another morning
We're never dead till the last breath
