He takes his women sweet
His maiden and his sinner
He favors them naive
Save for an hour after dinner

Tell me, am I your enemy?
Or am I just the highest bidder?
He takes you when you're sweet
But I'll love you when you're bitter

(Oh, he's made you so bitter)

And if you're falling, I'll take the blame
In the book of damned, my love, I saw your name
(In your eyes he saw his face)
I'll be your keeper if you play my game
You called him savior and he threw you away

You were deceived
Yes, someone led you down here, but it wasn't me
They don't deserve your faith, so take that leap for me instead
Feast on my wine and bread
Come and be led
Come and be led

So bittersweet
So bittersweet

He took the apple's sweet
But he's never called a sinner
The blame lies all in Eve
And by birth you've always been her

They prey on your suffering
And he prays he'll be delivered
He took the apple's sweet
And he's left you cold and bitter

(Ooh, I love the taste of bitter)

Oh, yes, you're falling, but not to blame
Like a traitor's kiss, your love, he spoke your name
(She's the one)
I'll be his reckoning if you play my game
Maybe this time, he should be afraid

You were betrayed, oh lover and giver
(Oh, he's left you so bitter)
He promised harvest, but did he deliver?
And didn't he take for his own pleasure too?
Didn't he pilfer the food that you grew?
And didn't he promise, through sickness, I do?
And now you finally realize

You were deceived
Hollow and hungry and still told you should believe
If you want freedom, take this opportunity instead
Forget the things he's said
Come and be fed
Come and be fed

Aren't you relieved?
When you've been starving, every bite can taste so sweet
He called you rotten, baby I'm ready to eat it all
It's ecstasy to crawl
Let yourself fall
