Bittersweet
Seven sins of wantonness, and everything that's good is gone
Sell it for the glory from the peers
Silicone priestess, scratch the back and twist the knife to bone
Kick against the pricks, and scrape the shins
I'm the enemy in the enemies, now
I swallowed the pill
And drank to the fill
And all these things I carry now
In this bittersweet, in this bittersweet now
Try to hold the world; they're sinkin', swimmin' in a paper cup
Try to own the one beneath the skin
Held up to the flames 'til singein' skin begins to draw and tuck
Never told us "not a chance to win"
What couldn't be, wouldn't be now
I swallowed the pill
And drank to the fill
And all these things I carry now
In this bittersweet, in this bittersweet now
Bittersweet, oh this bittersweet now
Oh, now hold your hands up to the sky, and try so hard to rise above
Everything is beaten down, yeah
I swallowed the pill
And drank to the fill
And all these things I carry now
In this bittersweet, in this bittersweet now
I swallowed the pill
And drank to the fill
All these things I carry now
In this bittersweet, in this bittersweet
In this bittersweet now (now, now, now, now)
(Now, now, now, now)
(Now, now, now, now)
(Now, now, now, now...)
Sell it for the glory from the peers
Silicone priestess, scratch the back and twist the knife to bone
Kick against the pricks, and scrape the shins
I'm the enemy in the enemies, now
I swallowed the pill
And drank to the fill
And all these things I carry now
In this bittersweet, in this bittersweet now
Try to hold the world; they're sinkin', swimmin' in a paper cup
Try to own the one beneath the skin
Held up to the flames 'til singein' skin begins to draw and tuck
Never told us "not a chance to win"
What couldn't be, wouldn't be now
I swallowed the pill
And drank to the fill
And all these things I carry now
In this bittersweet, in this bittersweet now
Bittersweet, oh this bittersweet now
Oh, now hold your hands up to the sky, and try so hard to rise above
Everything is beaten down, yeah
I swallowed the pill
And drank to the fill
And all these things I carry now
In this bittersweet, in this bittersweet now
I swallowed the pill
And drank to the fill
All these things I carry now
In this bittersweet, in this bittersweet
In this bittersweet now (now, now, now, now)
(Now, now, now, now)
(Now, now, now, now)
(Now, now, now, now...)
