Bittersweet Lyrics
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
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
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

No comments on this amazing song! I really miss New Model Army. This was their first song I ever heard, I was 11 at the time. Memorable. Great lyrics, so true to life.
