We're only young and naive still We require certain skills The mood it changes like the wind Hard to control when it begins The bittersweet between my teeth Trying to find the in-betweens Fall back in love eventually Yeah yeah yeah yeah Can't help myself but count the flaws Claw my way out through these walls One temporary escape Feel it start to permeate We lie beneath the stars at night Our hands gripping each other tight You keep my secrets hope to die Promises, swear them to the sky The bittersweet between my teeth Trying to find the in-betweens Fall back in love eventually Yeah yeah yeah yeah As it withers Brittle it shakes Can you whisper As it crumbles and breaks As you shiver Count up all your mistakes Pair of forgivers Let go before it's too late Can you whisper Can you whisper Can you whisper Can you whisper The bittersweet between my teeth Trying to find the in-betweens Fall back in love eventually Yeah yeah yeah yeah The bittersweet between my teeth Trying to find the in-betweens Fall back in love eventually Yeah yeah yeah yeah
