The lyrics of Pixel Terror's song "Bittersweet" express the desire to escape with a loved one regardless of the uncertainty and lack of reciprocated feelings. The repeated line "Let's run away, just you and I" indicates a craving for adventure and excitement with this person. The line "Your heart is mine" is an expression of possessiveness, a desire to be loved and to have the heart of the person being addressed. The repetition of "I'm falling falling, falling" throughout the song emphasizes the strong emotional attachment and the sense of falling for this person despite knowing that they don't love the singer back.
The use of "la-la-la" as a kind of refrain between each verse seems to highlight the uncertainty and confusion in the singer's mind. The repetition of the phrase "I know you don't love me like this" emphasizes the singer's awareness of the situation and the possible futility of their feelings towards this person. The whole song is a lament for a love that is bittersweet, a mixture of intense desire and the knowledge that it might not be reciprocated.

Heavy release, but I like it…
2 months later:
I dunno man, this might be too heavy for my speakers or my subwoofer, but wow! The Upgrade EP is soooo good!
5 months later:
HECK YEAH! I’M LOVING THIS SONG!!
1 year later: I wonder what would happen if I played this on my subwoofer at max volume?
1 sec later after that:
NOOOO! MY SUBWOOFER!!!! 😭
Well I guess, RIP Subwoofer.
This song is still a banger in 2021 and will be in the following years!

Hey everyone!! Thank you so much for checking out Bittersweet. Bitter that it doesn't end in 'A', but Sweet that it's a pretty saucy beat to start off the year. Ultra shout to Monstercat for releasing this as the first song of the decade. This is only the beginning of a brand new sagA..... ;)
