Lyrics:

Oh, it's another day over
And I'm left wondering what for
I sat and stared at a paper
And tried so hard to ignore
The thoughts all swirling inside me
That say I'm broken, a bore
I lead it on with a paper
A silent, desolate score

I make time for you
You make pain for free
But I know you're my dream
I'll take anything
And I mean anything

My coffee bean dream, so bittersweet
(Oh, I want to make a mistake with you)
Oh, seraphim schemes and self-esteem
(Oh, so many things I should say to you)
'Cause oh my god I love you, but you tear me apart
You're my savior and my devil, stab me straight through the heart
A plasticine sheen, you're so bittersweet
And all I want is to stay with you

I'm another day closer
To the end of my life
It all gets wasted on nothing
I watch the flickering light

I would kneel for you
Sat down on my knees
You'd just hurt me more
Hurt me 'till I bleed
(Oh god I'm desperate to bleed)

My coffee bean dream, it's so bittersweet
(Oh, I want to make a mistake with you)
A polyseme scream, such a stupid thing
(Oh, so many things I should say to you)
'Cause oh my god I love you, I can't take any more
But if I'm not creating, what the fuck am I for?
I burst at the seams, you're so bittersweet
(And all I want is to stay with you)

It wasn't always like this
I'm just resigned to the pain
But does the fight define us
Or does it waste us away?
I am much more than the sum of my work
And even without you there's so much I am worth
But I know there's still joy to be found in a song

My coffee bean dream, so bittersweet
(Oh, I want to make something more with you)
These scenes stay unseen, that's okay with me
(Oh, so many things I will share with you)
'Cause oh my god I love you, but I'm more than my love
And as long as I'm complete alone
There's still room for us, you'll be my treat, so bittersweet
(And all I want is to stay with you)
