Bitter Pill

Yeah I've had nights like this So many days like that But I've never been crazed, never been phased 'Til I was erased like that There have been times that I've screamed There have been ghosts in my dreams Though I've never let go, never been alone I've never cried tears like these A million miles still left to go While typical logic fails to flow And cynical lines still get drilled home Be more Elsa, just let go There have been lines that I've sung Not many times that I've won Invisible strings holding my wings Like I'm just here for their fun Just wake me up when my pain is numb What a bitter pill, so hard to swallow Resistant to the medicine I'm staring at the bottom And I'm a sucker to the mind What a bitter pill, so hard to follow Can't get over yesterday but dreaming of tomorrow And I, I live on borrowed time Yeah I've had months like this But not many years like that Always had insight, felt on the inside Never been blind to the facts Always had judgement, always had time Never too hard to fake that smile Never lacked substance, never had guile Yet my existence is now back on trial How can I be here again alone? Wake me up when the sickness goes How can I feel like I do each day When people around me suffer the same or worse? The end has begun The clouds look down, their back to the sun Luck feels lost, my stamina stung Chasing hope I'll never outrun My nights are numbered, my days are done What a bitter pill, so hard to swallow Resistant to the medicine I'm staring at the bottom And I'm a sucker to the mind What a bitter pill, so hard to follow Can't get over yesterday but dreaming of tomorrow And I, I live on borrowed time You ready? Is anybody out there? Can anybody hear me? I'm sinking and I don't care I need another remedy Is anybody out there? Can anybody hear me? I'm sinking and I don't care I need another remedy What a bitter pill, so hard to swallow Resistant to the medicine I'm staring at the bottom And I'm a sucker to the mind What a bitter pill, so hard to follow Can't get over yesterday but dreaming of tomorrow And I, I live on borrowed time What a bitter pill, so hard to swallow Resistant to the medicine I'm staring at the bottom And I'm a sucker to the mind What a bitter pill, so hard to follow Can't get over yesterday but dreaming of tomorrow And I, I live on borrowed time The only way is up from here
