lyrics

We're all confused
we're bruised and battered
left the frame
amused but shattered
and it all tastes better now
some tastes bitter though

There's no time to not reach out
instead of whisper
shout out loud
you cannot slip on that banana peel
when it's too late and things get real

It would be ignorant not delicate
to justify and estimate
it would be heartbreakingly average
to benefit and multiply

It all tastes better now
it all looks better now
it all smells better now
it all feels better now
but some sounds bitter though
