Bitter Is Better

You lay me down in satin sheets softly
You're movin' slow
It's gonna be everything just for me
I know how you want to love me

Your love is sweet, I'm going down easy
But I don't know what I'm doing here anyway, it's not me
I don't like what I feel, it's so-oh unreal
You better leave

You go, I call the stranger in black
But can't you see you're on the wrong track?
Tonight, I face the danger of love that knows no promises
Alive, I know I'm not coming back

Bitter is better
I gotta stop and walk away
Bitter is better
Your kind of love is not for me
Bitter is better
Locked away in your lovin' sweetness
Lost the key and I just don't need this

I'm not the woman you were looking for anyway
High on a pedestal, lily-white
Givin' me diamond rings
You're just too much for me
I'll lose my sanity
You better leave

You go, I call the stranger in black
But can't you see you're on the wrong track?
Tonight, I'll taste the danger of love that knows no promises
Alive, I know I'm not coming back

Bitter is better
I gotta stop and walk away
Bitter is better
Your kind of love is not for me
Bitter is better
Locked away in your lovin' sweetness
Lost the key and I just don't need this

Bitter is better
Your kind of love is not for me
Bitter is better
Lost the key and I just don't need this
