K.C. Clifford: Music

Bittersweet

Bittersweet

I left Nashville with a vengeance,
and I drove 2,000 miles
to forget about you.
I thought if I could
put some distance
between me and all the places,
I’d forget about you.

I guess I’ve finally
figured out that you can live without me
‘Cause I just started to taste the lies you were feeding me.
'Cause you chewed me up, and you spit me out, and I’m just your memory.
Ah, but it’s bittersweet.

I guess we look like Adam and Eve
‘cause I’m still holding the fruit,
but you got the blame.
I have never been so deceived, I have never been so naive, and I will never be the same.

Oh, you’re a snake,
and it’s a lie that
I was the apple of your eye.

And I'm eating your words.
