Bitter Moon Lyrics - Singles - Mark King

Those kissing words that come out of your mouth 

Sweet promises to break my heart 

You talk of love and I begin to trust 

I don't know why I'm scared 

Those kissing words they climb inside my head 

They cloud my mind like purest poison 

When I'm with you it feels so dangerous 

I don't know why I'm scared 

It's driving me crazy 

Bitter moon always betrays me 

Betrays me 

I know your thoughts, I've read your diaries 

My fingers burn as I turn the page 

You spoke of love my tears have turned to dust 

I don't know why I care 

I'm asking you to give me more than this 

I need to feel beyond the pain 

The rain returns to rearrange the rust 

I don't know why I care 

It's driving me crazy 

Bitter moon always betrays me 

Betrays me 

It's cold and it's crazy 

Bitter moon always betrays me 

Betrays me 

Cold sun in a wet rocky sky 

A broken beach where the waves come to die 

Walk alone with fear in my heart 

Still I deny we're falling apart 

Cyclops shines through the legendary night 

The living tale of a time we thought we might 

The open grave of the shallowness of blame 

Still I try to hold on to the flame 

A cold sun like the steel in your eyes 

The day you said goodbye was the day you saw me die 

A cold sun no heat for my heart 

Still I deny we're falling apart 

It's driving me crazy 

Bitter moon always betrays me 

Betrays me 

It's cold and it's crazy 

Bitter moon always betrays me 

Betrays me
