Bitter Water Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Jeanadyr

This song is about substance addiction.

They’ve personified their addiction to the “bitter water” which is alcohol (although it could be any substance) in terms of a toxic relationship with someone they love, but will ultimately kill them in the end.

It’s a beautifully written song.
