Bitter Cup Lyrics by The Black Sorrows

Better Times

0

I don't mind
If they tear this whole place down
I’d just sit and watch it burn
I don't care
If you leave this stupid town
Never to return
There was a time
In a dark and secret place
From your lips a lullaby
But I was blind
To the shadows on your face
Sometimes the light can lie
Just like a bolt out of the blue
No sweet dreams comin' true
The bitter cup you handed me
I give back to you
I don't mind
If the mountains turn to dust
I'd just say you were to blame
And I don't care if they crucify the just
And do it in your name
Just like a bolt out of the blue
No sweet dreams comin' true
The bitter cup you handed me
I give back to you
Over again, over and over
Over again, over and over
Over again, over and over
Over again, over and over
[Solo]
I don't mind
If they tear this whole place down
I’d just sit and watch it burn
I don't care
If you leave this stupid town
Oh, never to return
Cause like a bolt out of the blue
No sweet dreams comin' true
Cause like a bolt out of the blue
No sweet dreams comin' true
The bitter cup you handed me
I give back to you
Over again, over and over
Over again, over and over
Over again, over and over
Over again, over and over
[Solo]
Over again, over and over
Over again, over and over
Over again, over and over, (fade out)
(Camilleri Polec – Rondor Warner Chappell )
