Bitterwater（版本 2）

Verse

I woke up to the county water truck at four

Same old engine rattling past my bedroom door

Said I'd never settle here, said this town was small enough to drown in

Now it's the first place on earth where everything feels like home again

Mm, I used to chase the highway like a ghost in headlights

Pre-Chorus

But sometimes letting go means finding what stays

Not losing something but learning how to stay

Chorus

I'm drinking from the well that broke me

Turns out it's bitter and sweet all at once

Bitterwater tastes like every door I left behind

Turned up into a cup instead of spilled on the floor

It stings my tongue where I used to sting myself

But this time the salt keeps me alive, not dead

Verse

Your father's old pick-up truck is parked by the creek bed

Same faded seat where you learned how to drive yourself yet

You handed it down to your little brother last summer

Said it ain't mine no more, but I keep thinking 'bout that summer

Pre-Chorus

But sometimes letting go means finding what stays

Not losing something but learning how to stay

Chorus

I'm drinking from the well that broke me

Turns out it's bitter and sweet all at once

Bitterwater tastes like every door I left behind

Turned up into a cup instead of spilled on the floor

It stings my tongue where I used to sting myself

But this time the salt keeps me alive, not dead

Bridge

Maybe gold don't always come shining bright and bold

Sometimes it's just the same old water turned warm by someone else's hands

I never needed a trophy or a brand new name

Just learning how to hold onto something I used to call a waste of time

Chorus

I'm drinking from the well that broke me

Turns out it's bitter and sweet all at once

Bitterwater tastes like every door I left behind

Turned up into a cup instead of spilled on the floor

It stings my tongue where I used to sting myself

But this time the salt keeps me alive, not dead
