Bitter Pill

Maddie lived in West LA
Long brown hair with bangs that lay
Upon her brow, tanned lightly by the sun

Her sparkling eyes were crystal blue
When she stared, she'd see right through you
Toy with your emotions just for fun

Ooh-ooh, it's a bitter pill to swallow
She's here today, but she won't be here tomorrow

She worked down at the topless bar
Saved enough to buy a car
A rusty-red, forgotten Chevrolet
Too many nights with nothing to show
Counting tips while her frustration grows

Ooh-ooh, it's a bitter pill to swallow
She's here today, but she won't be here tomorrow
She's here today, but she won't be here tomorrow

Alone
"Now is there something wrong with me, she cried
"I feel like something deep inside me died" Mm, mm

Maddie found another town
But her past followed her around
Wherever she would run to, there she was
Baby, don't you leave me, baby, don't go
But streets are for deciding, I suppose

Ooh-ooh, it's a bitter pill to swallow
She's here today, but she won't be here tomorrow
She's here today, but she won't be here tomorrow

The cycle starts, it feels brand new
But she's been here a time or two
Maddie can't be happy if she ain't free
