Bittersweet

Once upon a time it was easy

Everything kind of fell into place

Now this feeling won't leave me

We lost the power and we lost the pace

It's staring straight between the eyes

Something isn't right

The harder we try the more we realise

Something isn't right

So bittersweet, this whole thing, so bitter sweet

Caught in this struggle for power

Where only blood ever tastes sweet

Everything else is so sour

The numbing failures and defeats

The loner's not a western hero

With nerves of steel and heart of gold

But here alone in the disco - icy cold

But there's always another morning

We're never dead till the last breath

So bittersweet, this whole thing, so bitter sweet
