Warm and sweet and soft and pink
Or so I was led to believe
The good things went from bad to worse
Every bubble has to burst

It seemed so sweet before
But not anymore
Just chew me up and spit me out like bubblegum

Cold and bitter, hard and gray
The whole world seems to feel that way
It's no surprise, it's only life
It makes me want to hide inside
It used to make me cry, but now I'm just too numb

What seemed so sweet before
Means nothing anymore
Just chew me up and spit me out like bubblegum

Small minds firing words that freeze
Conspire to drive me to my knees
Fine, I know that I can find
Courage burning deep inside
Fire to keep me warm for when the winter comes

It hurt so bad before
But never anymore
I'll never be used up like that by anyone
Never be used up again like bubblegum
Seemed so sweet before
