Bittersweet

Verse 1

Cherry cola kisses on your lips,

It drips from my fingertips,

Every touch is a sugar-stick,

Red desire, so luminous.

I melt into the heat of you,

Every high comes crashing through,

I taste forever, then it’s gone,

Your love is something I linger on.

⸻

Pre-Chorus

I know better, but I stay,

Love’s a drug I shouldn’t take,

Every time you say goodbye,

It makes my heart break.

⸻

Chorus

You’re too bittersweet, bittersweet, sweet,

Like sugar on a wound,

You make me feel high, then leave me bruised,

Loving you was like June turning blue.

Every warm thing fades with you,

But I still let it bloom,

I knew the cost, I paid it too—

That’s what loving you will do.

⸻

Verse 2

Your name still hums in my chest at night,

Soft like smoke under neon lights,

I hold the ache like it’s holy truth,

Every scar still tastes like you.

⸻

Bridge

If love’s a movie, we’re the sad scene,

Your scent hits me like caffeine,

If it hurts, then let it hurt slow,

I’d rather feel it than let you go.

⸻

Final Chorus

You’re bittersweet, but I still stay,

Addicted to the words you say,

Every promise pulls me deep,

Into secrets I still keep.

I know this love won’t set me free,

But I’m bound by destiny,

Even if you ruin me,

I’ll still love you—bittersweetly.

⸻

Outro

Cherry cola, mid-June,

If I’m breaking, it’s with you,

Bittersweet…

Bittersweet…
