What was once holy water, tastes like bitter wine
Verse 2:
I know I wasn’t funny, but you laughed at all my jokes
When I was choking on the words to say,
you shoved your finger down my throat
The first night I said I loved you,
you told me to go to hell
You were giving me head, on that creeky,
old bed at the Ol’Duvol Motel
PreChorus2:
Just like everything ,even good love has to die
Ain’t no sympathy when it sayes goodbye

now all that’s left is bitter wine
