Bittersweet

(album: There Goes The Neighborhood - 2023)

I'm straddling this yellow line
Twice the road in half the time
Feeling every jagged mile
Claw its way between us
And I'm headed straight for something good
But it doesn't feel like I thought it would
They've handed me my hopes and dreams
And I'm still falling to pieces

Now there's no turning back
Just say it's not so bad
God knows how close I've come
The taste of it is on my tongue
And it's

Bittersweet
Distance is killing me
Can't stop
Feeling like I'm on a rollercoaster
But I never want it to be over
Bittersweet
Wish you were next to me
Why not
Never really felt a love this tragic
I'm getting everything but what we have
It's bittersweet

This light on me is catching fire
I don't think I could get much higher
Memories are so alive
I wish that I could keep 'em
It's all smiling faces, big hotels
Getting wasted by myself
How can heaven hurt like hell
I'm thinking you're the reason
It's so

Bittersweet
Distance is killing me
Can't stop
Feeling like I'm on a rollercoaster
But I never want it to be over
Bittersweet
Wish you were next to me
Why not
Never really felt a love this tragic
I'm getting everything but what we have
It's bittersweet

Now there's no turning back
Just say it's not so bad
God knows how close I've come
The taste of it is on my tongue
And it's

Bittersweet
Distance is killing me
Can't stop
Feeling like I'm on a rollercoaster
But I never want it to be over
Bittersweet
Wish you were next to me
Why not
Never really felt a love this tragic
I'm getting everything but what we have
It's bittersweet
