Bitter Leaf

I'm kicking down your love

Faded like a night gone old

Hanging there in empty space

Out there in a hazy fog

I'm not saying it's your fault

But you hid it under blankets

Oh baby let me go

Release me from your handle

I never wanna know

You used to shine so bright

But you soured

At the taste of a bitter leaf

Took it all on me

But I see through you

And you won't be causing me no grief anymore

Hanging loose from the wall

Strips and flakes of paint

I'm tearing down your love

And all the last remains

I can feel the roof crash down

But maybe I'm dreaming

Lying on a redwood floor

Eyes fixed on the ceiling

You used to shine so bright

But you soured

At the taste of a bitter leaf

Took it all on me

But I see through you

And you won't be causing me no grief anymore
