  • Tragic, everybody tryin' to hide all of those habits
    It's kinda bizarre when it's who you are
    It's tragic that it's come to this
    I bury all of my vices tryin' to keep my head up over it
    When everything's whatever

    It's the be all end all and right before we fade away
    Call a spade a spade and you should know
    You can tell, it's a

    Bittersweet world
    Why can't we all just get along in this?
    Bittersweet world
    Everybody reapin' what they sow in this sweet world

    Whatever happened to the magic that was keepin' us
    The faith that was beyond stardust
    Now those hypocrites pointing fingers
    With three fingers pointing right back

    And all we're left with is
    And all we're left with is
    And all we're left with is
    The foolish pride and the quick fixes, yeah

    It's the be all end all and right before we fade away
    Call a spade a spade and you should know
    You can tell it's a

    Bittersweet world
    Why can't we all just get along in this?
    Bittersweet world
    Everybody reapin' what they sow in this sweet world

    Bittersweet world
    With closets full of skeletons
    I'm a bittersweet girl
    Demons out to get me as I stand alone

    There's a universal bottom line
    Everybody's in disguise, even you and I
    Behind the facade tryin' to get by
    Don't wanna burn but wanna play with fire, again

    There's a universal bottom line
    Everybody's in disguise, even you and I
    Behind the facade tryin' to get by
    You wanna play with fire, you're gonna get burned so

    It's the be all end all and right before we fade away
    Call a spade a spade and you should know
    You can tell

    It's the be all end all and right before we fade away
    Call a spade a spade and you should know
    You should know it's a

    Bittersweet world
    Why can't we all just get along in this?
    Bittersweet world
    Everybody reapin' what they sow in this

    Bittersweet world
    With closets full of skeletons
    I'm a bittersweet girl
    Demons out to get me as I stand alone Writer/s: ASHLEE NICOLLE SIMPSON, ASHLEE SIMPSON, JEROME HARMON, KENNA ZEMEDKUN, KING LOGAN, KING SOLOMON LOGAN, LESLIE JEROME HARMON, TIMOTHY MOSLEY, TIMOTHY Z. MOSLEY
