Bittersweet
Ochman Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sweet rain, sweet rain
Just pour all over, cleanse me from the pain, no pain
Relax with me
And seething in the rain
(Sweet rain)
(Just pour all over, cleanse me from the pain, no pain)
(Don't waste my fucking time and clean these)
Łapię bit jak haust ostatniego lekarstwa
Kapie na mnie kwas, łatwopalna substancja
Przepłynąłem wpław, ścieki wylane w asfalt
Utopiony w snach a to jedyna lokacja
W której mogliśmy się skraplać, kap, kap
Ziomal, chmury to tapczan, mikroruchy to falstart
Przytuliłem strach i pokochałem dziwactwa
Gdzieś pomiędzy sztuką, no i sztuką tak jak antrakt
(Sweet rain) Ale toksyczna aura
Krople deszczu grają nam ten nieprzerwany aplauz
Prawie poczułem radość, wygrała nostalgia
A przybrała w nagość się a wcześniej to był Carhartt
Znów jestem na czas, jakbym zapomniał zaspać
Symbioza, depresja i pięciogramowa paczka
Odbijam jak czkawka, oddycham jak rashguard
Przerzedzona mżawka otula jak matka (kap, kap, kap, kap)

Sweet rain, sweet rain
Just pour all over, cleanse me from the pain, no pain
Relax with me
And seething in the rain
Sweet rain
Tired eye, never dry in the rain, no way
(Don't waste my fucking time and clean these)

Supper's calling, I don't know your name
Rain is falling, put the sun to shame
I've been digging the mud
While out, doing the most, doing the most
Getting dirty for the pay now
Coming back in to hide
Wash the whiskey with life
Take me no closer to the light
Tell me what's good for the humankind
I wanna, I wanna, I wanna lifeline
I wanna, I wanna the light
I wanna, I wanna moisturize up when I feel dry
Out of luck
At the break of dawn
Oh, be my guide

Sweet rain, sweet rain
Just pour all over, cleanse me from the pain, no pain
Relax with me
And seething in the rain
Sweet rain




Tired eye, never dry in the rain, no way
Don't waste my fucking time and clean these stains

The “Bittersweet” music video is based on the message of surrealism in the art of the 20th century, which tried to use intense and figurative imagery to force us to contemplate that in reality, things are often not as they seem. Things sometimes will have to get worse before they can improve.

The beat starts us off bitter along with Opał’s verse. I come in halfway through making the song more melodic and a bit sweeter. Rain is bothersome, nostalgic, and at the same time bringing a sort of peacefulness and thus being bittersweet in general. The auto tune follows the rain, coming and going in waves every few bars.

Opał raps about what might scare us. I sing about accepting what’s been. To clean our heads from chaos. The cuss at the end is to further the point that the first step is accepting things as they really are.

The woman who shows up in many scenes is lost and wants to rid herself of inner pain. The girls laying on the floor are like “fallen angels”. They want to help me but are unable because they’re bandaged and restricted by the regret, the pain, the dirt of the past and what might be, which they carry inside. No one will help you better than you yourself.

We want to rid ourselves of these feelings and restrictions hence the blood spewing. The dancing woman in front of the masked person anxiously tries to free herself from the bandages to accept what’s been and the uncertainty of the future.

No longer constrained she celebrates in the rain. Her bittersweet victory.

@Izabela Piotrowska Tak powinno być. Miłego dnia!

@K. P. nikt nikogo nie przekonuje, niech każdy myśli co chce. Miłego dnia!

@Izabela Piotrowska Ludzie komentują że swójego punktu widzenia, więc subiektywnie, a nie obiektywnie, to po pierwsze, po drugie z tych wypowiedzi wynika, że w ich mniemaniu ten utwór jest zły i stworzony przez złego człowieka. Gdybym to ja tak uważała, więcej bym tu nie zajrzała nawet nie komentując, a już na pewno nie przekonywała bym wszystkich do swoich racji. Zwłaszcza, że większość tych zarzutów nijak się ma do rzeczywistości.

@K. P. ludzie komentują to co widzą, obiektywnie, fani też potrafią być obiektywni 👍Może większość broniących go jest w nim zwyczajnie zakochana, może nie chcą spojrzeć na niego z innej perspektywy 💁‍♀️

Piąty dzień słucham i oglądam Bittersweet, i przede wszystkim czytam komentarze, sama czasem też coś dodam. Ludzie w komentarzach spierają się ze sobą, dyskutują, zgadzają się ze swoimi opiniami, albo i nie, wkurzają się, obrażają na siebie, opisują piosenkę na piątą stronę, każdy aspekt został (chyba?) omówiony. Mamy dla Krystiana mnóstwo rad, uwag. Nie wiem, jaki będzie los tego utworu, ale jedno jest pewne: Krystian Ochman ze swoją twórczością nie pozostawia ludzi obojętnymi. Kiedy ostatnio uczestniczyliście w takiej zażartej dyskusji? Bo ja już dawno nie, i trzeba przyznać, że to jest rzeczowa dyskusja. Krystian, Opał, ludzie odpowiedzialni i występujący w teledysku - gratuluję, bo to wszystko dzięki Wam!

Sylwia Szczepanska

I to jest sztuka przez wielkie "S": wyzwala różne emocje, wzbudza kontrowersje, zmusza do dyskusji, każdy zauwaza cos innego, ci do niego przemawia Brawo Wy. Kap, kap💦

Teresa Narbut

To zupełnie coś innego. Pewnie dla wielu fanów Pana Krystiana to szok. Proszę się nie przejmować, że nie jest tak jak Pan zapewnie sobie myślał ale eksperymentowanie to nic złego. Ja uwielbiam River, Prometeusz, Wielkie tytuły, Światłocienie najbardziej ale ta piosenka też mi się podoba. Powodzenia. I jeszcze dodam - przynajmniej 100 razy słuchałam Tylko mnie poproś do tańca z The Voice of Poland. Uczta dla uszu i serca.

Jolanta z Gdańska

Ja przynajmniej ze 100 razy słuchałam z The Voice "Nie czekaj mnie w Argentynie" i "Lovely'" z Weroniką Szymańską.🍒 Pierwsza piosenka nie tylko pięknie zaśpiewana, ale i zagrana, wyraz twarzy Krystiana bardzo wymowny, piękne rozumne oczy. 🍒W drugiej Krystian tworzy delikatne tło, aby podkreślić głos Weroniki. Nie ma w Nim egoizmu, lecz stara się podkreślić głos Koleżanki. Wyszło fantastycznie. 🍒"Tylko mnie poproś do tańca" też genialne wykonanie. Obejrzałam wiele razy.🍒🍒🍒
