Lyrics
sweet, sweet lemons
you are bitter, oh so bitter
in the end
pouring on sugar
of denial, in denial
i pretend
i am the actor
_when you're feeling out of place
you hear my laughter
_as the tears roll down your face
i'm in a bowl of mixed emotion
craving for the savory truth
open your eyes
in the darkness, in light of
what it takes
tempering the sweetness,
with a touch of, oh a taste of
sour grapes
you are the actor
_when I'm feeling out of place
i hear your laughter
_as the tears roll down my face
into a bowl of mixed emotion
craving for the savory truth
i don't wanna believe that which is false
i don't wanna be hiding from my fears
i don't wanna pretend I'm someone else
i just wanna be true
i'm in a bowl of mixed emotion
craving for the savory truth
hungry for the savory truth
only for the savory truth
