Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Broke my heart and it ain′t even Monday yet
Wanna text, wanna call say you're sorry
State your case, let a judge put it all to rest
Bittersweet is the taste of our lovin′
Same ol' shrine where to beg for the sufferin', yeah
Played our part, made us fall, then the gunning
Have it all figured out now and I′m firin′ away
I can't sleep, I can′t sleep because you drive me crazy
You got me, you got me scheming shit about you
Blaming me blaming you, why we both being fools
Blaming me blaming you, so we keep doing what we do, yeah
Bittersweet is the taste of our lovin' and the same ol′ lies
Bittersweet, as we beg for the sufferin', the words we say
Bittersweet for us, but we played our part
Bittersweet, made us fall, then the gunning broke it off
In a vice where I′m twistin' and turnin'
Here and back and it ain′t even Friday yet
Can′t improve, can't remove, lot of fuzzin′
Give me space, make or break, such an acid test
Then we shift, what a bliss, no more gunning
Lose the lies, let us drop all the sufferin', yeah
Save our hearts, hear me call for the lovin′
Have it all figured out now and I'm firin′ away
I can't sleep, I can't sleep because you drive me crazy
You got me, you got me scheming shit about you
Blaming me blaming you (Hey), why we both being fools
Blaming me blaming you, so we keep doing what we do, yeah
Bittersweet is the taste of our lovin′ and the same ol′ lies
Bittersweet, as we beg for the sufferin', the words we say
Bittersweet for us, but we played our part
Bittersweet, made us fall, then the gunning broke it off
I can′t sleep because you drive me crazy
You got me scheming shit about you
Blaming me blaming you (Blaming me blaming you)
Why we both being fools (Why we both being fools)
Blaming me blaming you, so we keep doing what we do, yeah
Bittersweet is the taste of our lovin' and the same ol′ lies
Bittersweet, as we beg for the sufferin', the words we say
Bittersweet for us, but we played our part (Played our part)
Bittersweet, made us fall, then the gunning broke it off
Bittersweet for us, but we played our part
Bittersweet, made us fall, then the gunning broke it off
