Bitter
Fletcher Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's like
Bein' on the outside of an inside joke
It's like
When they only got Pepsi and you really want Coke
It's like
You finally get a text back and it's just your mom
When you just broke up and they play your song
I know I said it's kinda stupid
But it's just the way I'm feeling right now
And I hate that I can tell
That someone's probably in my shoes by now
Right now
I know she thinkin' that she found herself a winner
I know you fucked her on the counter
Right before you cooked her dinner, yeah
I know you think about me when you kiss her
I left a taste in your mouth
Can she taste me now
That you threw out all our furniture and pictures
I bet you sugarcoat the truth
I bet you're real sweet with her, yeah
I know you think about me when you kiss her
I left a taste in your mouth
Can she taste me now
I'm bitter
(I'm bitter, I'm bitter
I'm bitter, I'm bitter)
Hear about your new life and the brand new you
It's like
Heard you got a new job but I heard you moved
It's like
I don't wanna hear it, don't wanna hear about you
It's like
I don't give a fuck (yeah, I do)
I know I said it's kinda stupid
But it's just the way I'm feeling right now
And I hate that I can tell
That someone's probably in my shoes by now
Right now
I know she thinkin' that she found herself a winner
I know you fucked her on the counter
Right before you cooked her dinner, yeah
I know you think about me when you kiss her
I left a taste in your mouth
Can she taste me now
That you threw out all our furniture and pictures
I bet you sugarcoat the truth
I bet you're real sweet with her, yeah
I know you think about me when you kiss her
I left a taste in your mouth
Can she taste me now
I'm bitter
(I'm bitter, I'm bitter
I'm bitter, I'm bitter)
You're still in my head, but
You're not in my bed, now
You're not in my bed, now
You're still in my head, but
You're not in my bed, now
You're not in my bed, now
I know she thinkin' that she found herself a winner
I know you fucked her on the counter
Right before you cooked her dinner, yeah
I know you think about me when you kiss her
I left a taste in your mouth
Can she taste me now
That you threw out all our furniture and pictures
I bet you sugarcoat the truth
I bet you're real sweet with her, yeah
I know you think about me when you kiss her
I left a taste in your mouth
Can she taste me now
I'm bitter
(I'm bitter, I'm bitter
I'm bitter, I'm bitter)
Well you know I'm bitter
In Fletcher's song "Bitter," she describes the feeling of bitterness towards an ex-partner who has moved on with their life. The opening lines set the tone by comparing the feeling to being on the outside of an inside joke or craving a specific drink but only having access to an alternative option. The lyrics go on to delve deeper into the singer's feelings of frustration and resentment towards their past relationship. The chorus repeats the phrase "I'm bitter" as a way to express this emotion, and the verse gives specific examples of why the singer is feeling this way.
One of the most striking aspects of the song is how it highlights the contrast between the singer's internal feelings and how their ex-partner appears to be doing on the surface. The lyrics mention the ex getting a new job and moving, which might make them seem like they are doing well. However, the singer is clearly struggling to move on and is bitter about the situation. This contrast is also present in the lyrics about the ex's current partner. While the singer imagines them being "real sweet" together, she knows that the ex still thinks about her and she left a taste in his mouth.
Overall, "Bitter" is a powerful and relatable song about the feelings of resentment that can linger after a relationship ends. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the singer's emotions and the situation she finds herself in.
