Bittersweet Me lyrics

I move across, innocence lost

All flashing pulsar

I move across the earth in my new pattern shirt

I pass satellites

You're so bitter, your complaint

I can't give you anything

I don't know who you're livin' for

I don't know who you are anymore

I'd sooner chew my leg off

Than be trapped in this

How easy you think of all of this as bittersweet me

I couldn't taste it

I'm tired and naked

I don't know what I'm hungry for

I don't know what I want anymore

I move across, candy floss

I move like a tank

I move across the room with a heart full of gloom

I'm stronger than you think

Oh, my peer, your veneer

Is wearing thin and cracking

The surface informs that underneath

The underneath is lacking

I'd sooner chew my leg off

Than be trapped in this

How easy you think of all of this as bittersweet me

I couldn't taste it

I'm tired and naked

I don't know what I'm hungry for

I don't know what I want anymore

You move across, innocence lost

All static and desire

You're blue in the face from navel gaze

You set yourself on fire

You strip down and lay yourself out

I know you can't fake it

But are you tired and naked?

Are you tired and naked?

Yeah, I'd sooner chew my leg off

Than be trapped in this

How easy you think of all of this as bittersweet me

I couldn't taste it

I'm tired and naked

I don't know what I'm hungry for

I don't know what I want anymore

I couldn't taste it

I'm tired and naked

I don't know what I'm hungry for

I don't know what I want anymore

I couldn't taste it

I'm tired and naked

I don't know what I'm hungry for

I don't know what I want anymore
