[Verse 1]
You sit in the half-light,
gold through your hair
Say you’re okay but
nobody’s there
Your voice is a whisper,
cracking like glass
I try to hold onto
something that lasts
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
And I know, I know
we’re running on fumes again
Every word you don’t say
cuts deeper than oxygen
⸻
[Chorus]
It’s bittersweet, the way you leave
like you were never mine to keep
I taste your name in everything
but it still feels incomplete
We fall apart so beautifully
like broken chords in minor keys
If loving you is killing me
then let it be bittersweet
⸻
[Verse 2]
Your hands are still shaking
mine never do
Guess I got used to
losing you
The room’s getting colder
you won’t look back
I’m screaming in silence
fading to black
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
And I try, I try
to pretend it don’t hurt like this
But your ghost in my head
is a love I can’t dismiss
⸻
[Chorus]
It’s bittersweet, the way you leave
like you were never mine to keep
I taste your name in everything
but it still feels incomplete
We fall apart so beautifully
like broken chords in minor keys
If loving you is killing me
then let it be bittersweet
⸻
[Bridge – softer, almost whispered]
Stay… just a little longer
Lie… say it isn’t over
Hold me like you mean it this time
⸻
[Bridge – builds]
We were fire in a dead town
burning ‘til we burned out
Tell me—was it ever real?
⸻
[Final Chorus – louder, raw]
It’s bittersweet, the way you leave
you take the best of me
I gave you every broken piece
you gave me memories
We fall apart so beautifully
like we were meant to be
If loving you is killing me…
⸻
[Outro – quiet]
…then I’ll die bittersweet
