Lemonelle
The bitterness won’t go away.
No matter how hard you try
The lemons are here to stay.
Nothing you can do but pray.
Nothing you can do but cry.
The bitterness won’t go away.
There is only suffering today.
The juice is in your eye.
The lemons are here to stay.
The despair won’t stop to your dismay.
You plead up to the sky.
The bitterness won’t go away.
Your body will begin to decay.
This is where you finally ly.
The bitterness won’t go away.
The lemons are here to stay.
