crimulus - Tough Pill To Swallow
Channel: crimulus
Date: 2023-04-07

Another new song -- just felt like writing today. There are some good qualities to this one, but I'm not sure it's a great one.

I have a lot of things I'm still processing, and songwriting is one of the few ways I can get it out, so I keep on trying.

Lyrics:

I couldn't know you were preying upon
The first thing that came along
I was sure it was love by the day you were gone
And maybe that's not much

Thinking maybe if I played you a song
You'd open up your trust
Behind these walls is where you belonged
Just pardon the dust

I'm telling you

You left based solely on lies
That's a tough pill to swallow
It's worse than if you had died
I can't make sense of it all, no

It's torture watching you move on
My heart won't stop its longing for you

I'm trying now to pretend that you're gone
But it seems so freaking rushed
It seems like only a second beyond
That moment we first touched

It's gotta be

You left based solely on lies
That's a tough pill to swallow
It's worse than if you had died
I can't make sense of it all, no

It's torture watching you move on
My heart won't stop its longing for you

You left based solely on lies
That's a tough pill to swallow

You left based solely on lies
That's a tough pill to swallow
It's worse than if you had died
I can't make sense of it all, no

It's torture watching you move on
My heart won't stop its longing for you
