Bitterest Pill Songtext
von Emily Donohue

Last night
I thought I played it right
But I left it wrong
I never should have come
And you looked so confused
You thought I would feel it, too
Well, honey, I′ve got news for you
I am a fool

I rarely get it right
The first time
The first time

I thought things were going great
But it was growing late
So, you made your escape
And I should really know by now
That I'm the reason things don′t work out
'Cause I've got this terrible way of never
Saying what it is I mean to say


I rarely get it right
The first time
The first time
And you, you′ve gotta see it through
There′s nothing I can do
To get through to you

And that's the bitterest pill that I′ll ever swallow
It's the pride in my heart
That I have to follow through
If I ever want you to want me, too

Can I really be blamed?
For a momentary lapse in my judgement
For a reflex I felt, but instantly regret
I feel too much pain for a thing
That I never even really had

It′s the pain in your eyes as I pulled away
It was realizing that I wanted to stay
But I was too late

And that's the bitterest pill that I′ll ever swallow
It's the pride in my heart
That I have to follow through
If I ever want you to want me, too

I rarely get it right
The first time
The first time


It's the bitterest pill
It′s the bitterest pill
