Cover art for Bittersweet lyrics by Big Head Todd and the Monsters

Well, this song is about the way a relationship starts in the beginning. You see her in your dreams, and you want to make the dream real. The reality finally comes, and now you can't wait to wake up out of it because it's not what it seems. It's a slow death of a relationship, dodging the questions and situations while going throught the motions. We've all been there, and it's more bitter than sweet.

buffstuff34 - I totally agree with your interpretation of this song. Ironically enough, it was a girl who introduced me to BHTM that the song applies to (although she turned out to be BIG trouble!!). The relationship starts out as a dream, almost a mythic quality, you're intoxicated with the possibilities, the idea of being in love... Then, as each day passes your forced to accept this person as they really are, not your projection of them. Then, as reality sets in, you begin to question the relationship and whether or not this person is "the one" - each day...
