Lyrics of BITTERSUITE by Billie Eilish
intro
I can′t fall in love with you
verse
I've been overseas
I′ve been havin' dreams
You were in the foyer
I was on my knees
Outside of my body
Watchin' from above
I see the way you want me
I wanna be the one, oh
pre-chorus
But I gotta be careful
Gotta watch what I say
God, I hope it all goes away
chorus
′Cause I can′t fall in love with you
No matter how bad that I want to
bridge
Mm
Ah-oh, uh, uh
Ah-oh, uh, uh
Mm
chorus
I don't need to breathe when you look at me, all I see is green
And I think that we′re in between everything I've seen
In my dream, have it once a week, can′t land on my feet
Can't sleep, have you underneath all of my beliefs
Keep it brief
I′ll wait in the suite
Keep me off my feet, mm
verse
You seem so paranoid
I'm looking at the boys
I've never filled the void
Out of spite
You seem so paralyzed
It′s so romanticized
If this is how I die
That′s alright
chorus
I've been overseas
I don′t need to breathe when you look at me, all I see is green
And I think that we're in between everything I′ve seen
In my dream, have it once a week, can't land on my feet
And I′ve been overseas (can't sleep)
Have you underneath all of my beliefs
Keep it brief (so brief)
I'll see you in the suite (in the suite)
We can be discrete (ah)
But I′ve been overseas
And I′ve been havin' dreams
L′amour de ma vie
Love so bittersweet, mm
outro
Open up the door for me
For me
'Cause I′m still on my knees
I'm stayin′ off my feet, oh
Will you come with me?
Just want you to tell the truth
Come on now, ha
And I know it seems like something even bitter
Listen up, hm
I've watched you keep on doing better
It's someone I don′t know
Pay close attention to it, right now
Writer(s): Finneas Baird O'connell, Billie Eilish O'connell
