Goodbye Blue Monday - Take Your Pills Lyrics

Take your pills
You can feel the weight returning
And the burden is unliveable. Unstoppable
That means you gotta
Take your pills
Now you can feel your heart start running
And the race is unbearable. Unwinnable
Only thing you can do
Take your pills
Though they make you retch and heave
Though they leave your mouth chalked and parched
Though they can offer no relief
Though they can't change what you are

Choke em all down
Choke em all down with pride
Choke em all down
Choke em down with your pride

Here's one for the highs, and one for the lows
And one to smooth out the in-betweens
A little for the ups, a little for the downs
And some to stop you slipping, now you're slipping
Crying, screaming
Take your pills

Take your pills
Yeah, sedate your useless body
Dim out those dark places
Until reality is foggy
And friends become unfamiliar faces
Dull your pathetic senses
Shadow your shame in cloud
A lick of paint on your defences
Before they all come crashing down

Choke em all down
Choke em all down with pride
Feel em rotting out
Rotting out your insides

Here's one for the highs, and one for the lows
And one to smooth out the in-betweens
A little for the ups, a little for the downs
And some to stop you slipping, now you're slipping
Crying, screaming
Take your pills

You raging cunt of disappointment
Suspended in an air of discontent
A dying fly in the ointment
Sucked down the drain of supplements

If this is how it's gonna be this year
Then let this year be the last
If this is how it's gonna be once again
Pop the lid, spill em out, raise your glass

And choke em down
Choke em down
Choke em down
Choke em all f*ckin down
