Milo Nova - Winter's Bitter Wine Lyrics

[Intro]
Cold nights in Saint Petersburg
Where memories freeze and burn
Papa's eyes tell stories I can't read
While grandma's piano collects dust, indeed

[Verse 1]
Designer clothes can't warm this frozen heart
Family dinners tear my soul apart
They want a doctor, lawyer, something clean
But I'm just sippin' codeine, chasing dreams
Old money whispers through these mansion walls
While I'm just watching everything fall
Grandmother's portrait judges from above
This ain't the kind of life she'd speak of

[Chorus]
Winter's bitter wine, pour it down my throat
Family name's divine, but I'm staying broke
Heritage like chains, weighing on my soul
Trust fund baby pain, nobody knows
Nobody knows, yeah
Nobody knows

[Verse 2]
Formal education couldn't save me
Legacy and pressure drove me crazy
Empty halls and golden chandeliers
Can't drown these f*cking anxious fears
Mother's crying in her Gucci shawl
Father's silence echoes through it all
They built an empire just for me
But all I feel is misery

[Bridge]
Saint Petersburg nights got me feeling so cold
Family expectations getting real old
Breaking down slowly in this Bentley alone
Rich boy problems that I can't postpone

[Chorus]
Winter's bitter wine, pour it down my throat
Family name's divine, but I'm staying broke
Heritage like chains, weighing on my soul
Trust fund baby pain, nobody knows
Nobody knows, yeah
Nobody knows

[Outro]
Let the snow bury everything I was supposed to be
Let it all fade to white, just set me free
