Bitter

Take a sip of this baby
It's bitter
But it's better
Maybe it'll fix this mess

It's just tough love baby
You know that I care
That I'm there
To clean up this mess you've made

I know it's hard to see now
But I love you
I know you love me too
But the wreckage tears us apart

Another love strains your strings
But baby
Maybe
If we clean up this mess, he'll go away

Sever that relationship
Take another lash of the whip
Listen, follow, and obey
And everything will be okay
You can't be happy with less
More is hidden beneath this mess
Take another look, my dear
And everything will be clear

Finish off the few sips
Born again virgin lips
Carry on with your blindness
And I will clean up this mess

Take another sip, my sweet
It's bitter
But it's better
Let me clean up this mess

I don't like to do this
What hurts you
Hurts me too
So, don't make me do this again

You can't see it now
But punishment
It's fulfillment
And it will clean up this mess

Cuz punishment is redemption
And beauty is repultion
But instead of acceptance
You meet me with resistance

Finish off the last few sips
Born again virgin lips
Carry on with your blindness
And I will clean up this mess

I know it's hard to see now
But I love you
And you love me too
But the wreckage tears us apart

Take another sip of this, darling
It's bitter
But it's better
And it will fix this mess

Take another sip of this, darling
It's bitter
But it's better...
