Bittersweet

Seven sins of wantonness
And everything that's good is gone
Sell it all for glory from the peers
Silicone priestess
Scratch the back and twists the knife to bone
Kick against the pricks and scrape the shins
I'm the enemy in the enemies now

Swallowed the pill
Drank to the fill
All these things I carry now
In this bittersweet
In this bittersweet now

Try to hold the world their sinking,
Swimming in a paper cup
Try to own the one beneath the skin
Held up to the flames 'till singed
Skin begins to draw and tuck
Never told there's not a chance to win
What couldn't be, wouldn't be now

Swallowed the pill
Drank to the fill
All these things I carry now
In this bittersweet
In this bittersweet now

Bittersweet...
Ah this bittersweet...

Hold your hands up to the sky
And try so hard to rise above
Everything is beaten down

Swallowed the pill
And drank to the fill
All these things I carry now
In this bittersweet In this bittersweet now
Swallowed the pill
And drank to the fill
In this bittersweet
In this bittersweet
In this bittersweet now...
