Bittersweetheart lyrics

Artist  : Soul asylum 
Song : Bittersweetheart
 
Why you always want to get the best of me
I’m like a seeing-eye dog and I can’t even see
They’re naked and they’re following my master who
is blind
And my mind’s gone to pieces, I could use some
piece of mind

So I picked up the pieces and I made a new start
Stole an old stiletto, started stabbing in the
dark
I can’t live without it, I would surely fall
apart
But it’s hard to make arrangements ’round a
bittersweetheart

Bittersweetheart
Better get yourself a little street smart
Bittersweetheart, sad but true
It’s a bittersweetheart that’s a hard heart to
cure
It’s just my bittersweetheart

It’s like a suicide mission when you can’t see no
end
Tired of compliment-fishing and impressing your
friends
I never kissed no one just to kiss and tell
It’s a little bit of heaven and a whole lot of
hell

In the eye of the beholder is a beautiful start
But you always seem to end up with a
bittersweetheart
There’s a darkness looming but the sun is shining
bright
I can live to see the morning if I stay up all
night

Bittersweetheart
Without a shortcut, without a head-start
Bittersweetheart, sad but true
It’s a bittersweetheart that’s a hard heart to
cure
My bittersweetheart
It’s the hardest part
Bittersweetheart

Are you in there, are you beating
Beating me up until I’m bleeding
How much blood can you spare

Bittersweetheart
Think just a drink might get you to the good
part
Lyin’ in bed just a’wonderin’ what to do,
It’s a bittersweetheart that’a a hard heart to
cure

In time inside you find you always wind up with a
bittersweetheart
