Slutterhouse - Bitter Green Lyrics

I've always seen roses in your hands
You've always seemed better than a friend
And though it seems it was never meant
I'll always feel what I've always felt

My mother's eyes are bitter green
My troubled mind is never clean

Don't you believe all the things you read
I sell you dreams but inside I'm dead
You know the tears on my secret face
You own the keys to a better place

My mother's eyes are bitter green
My troubled mind is never clean

Dance to groove
Don't try to love
Stand in my shoes
One night's enough
Dance to groove
Don't try to love
Stand in my shoes
One night's enough

My mother's eyes are bitter green
My troubled mind is never clean
I close my eyes but never sleep
A troubled childhood, can't you see?

My mother's eyes are bitter green
My troubled mind is never clean
I close my eyes but never sleep
A troubled childhood, can't you see?

Dance to groove
Don't try to love
Stand in my shoes
One night's enough
Dance to groove
Don't try to love
Stand in my shoes
One night's enough

My mother's eyes are bitter green
