Bitter Synth

You said it softly

Like a password you forgot

Coffee in the kitchen

Going cold in my hands

You checked your phone

Like it might save us

Every little silence

Cutting grooves in the air

Bitter synth in my chest

Playing that same two-note regret

Every night

Every night

You’re the loop I can’t reset

Bitter taste on my tongue

From every word we left unsung

Turn it down

Turn it down

But the damage hums along

You left your sweater

On the back of my chair

Dust in the sunlight

Dancing where you’re not there

I scroll our photos

Like a broken cassette

Smiles out of focus

Static over your face

Bitter synth in my chest

Playing that same two-note regret

Every night

Every night

You’re the loop I can’t reset

Bitter taste on my tongue

From every word we left unsung

Turn it down

Turn it down

But the damage hums along

Tell me

Did you hear it too

That quiet crack inside the tune (oh)

All the bright parts bending blue

Till every sweet thing sounded cruel

Bitter synth in my chest

Playing that same two-note regret

Every night

Every night

You’re the loop I can’t reset

Bitter taste on my tongue

From every word we left unsung

Fade it out

Fade it out

But the damage sings along (yeah)

Bitter synth

Bitter sound
