Bittersweet
LG4 Trey Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Took me by surprise with all your enemies
Can′t get you out of my mind, it's damaging
Baby kiss my neck, with the reaper′s lipstick
She love me, she love me not, her love is bittersweet
Took me by surprise with all your enemies
Can't get you out of my mind, it's damaging
Baby kiss my neck, show me your lipstick
Sing into my ears, forget to lip sync
Take me by my hand, and grab another drink
Baby kiss my neck, with the reaper′s lipstick
Hand on your throat, I'll take your breath away
Just me and you, a couple castaways
I see that look in your eye, you′ve got something to say
The camera's on, tomorrow we′ll watch the replay
That girl a demon, she all in my head, It's driving me insane
Whispered in my ear, she wanting me dead
For my soul to claim
Sweet lullaby she sings, bring me deeper in I say
She love me, she love me not, her love is bittersweet
Took me by surprise with all your enemies
Can′t get you out of my mind, It's damaging
Baby kiss my neck, with the reaper's lipstick
I be stumbling, mumbling, slurring my words
I′m feeling the champagne
Wait for me, patiently, you′ll get a turn
Yeah, I'm your claim to fame
Black hair, tattoos, with the buckled boots
Only care for me, because you know I′m doomed
Slow spins, hair pins, falling
Pink gin, pouring, darling
Let's fly to Berlin, the night life′s calling
Before we get the plane will you let me know if
She loves me, she loves me not
She loves me, she loves me not
She loves me, she loves me not
She loves me
She love me, she love me not, her love is bittersweet
Took me by surprise with all your enemies
Can't get you out of my mind, it′s damaging
Baby kiss my neck, with the reaper's lipstick
"Bittersweet" by LG4 Trey is a song about a toxic relationship that the singer is involved in. Throughout the song, he expresses how he is unsure of his partner's feelings for him, as well as how the relationship is damaging to him both mentally and physically. The line "She loves me, she loves me not, her love is bittersweet" reflects his uncertain feelings about the relationship, as he is unaware of whether his partner's love for him is genuine or not.
The lyrics also showcase the hold that his partner has on him, as he is unable to get her out of his mind even though he is aware of the negative impact the relationship has on him. The line "Can't get you out of my mind, it's damaging" highlights this. Additionally, the use of the phrase "with the reaper's lipstick" suggests that his partner is manipulative and potentially dangerous, as the reaper is often associated with death.
The chorus of the song is repeated multiple times, emphasizing the cyclical nature of the singer's thoughts and feelings towards the relationship. The bridge of the song, where the singer talks about his partner wanting him dead for his soul, adds a darker element to the lyrics and suggests that the relationship may be a form of emotional manipulation.
Overall, "Bittersweet" is a song that explores the complicated and potentially dangerous nature of toxic relationships. It highlights the pain and confusion that can arise from being involved with someone who has the power to control and manipulate your emotions.
