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
