St. Lenox - Bitter Pill lyrics

[Verse 1] Walk in to the kitchen and You'll see a drawing of a man With hearts for arms and legs stuck to The door of the refrigerator You had drawn the picture as A silly little gift for me I kept the drawing to confirm That you were still with me [Chorus] And you are a harsh and bitter pill to swallow And you are a past temptation laid to rest And you are a stiff reminder of impermanence And you are a fading memory [Verse 2] Down beneath the counter there's A book with pages stained from years Of fiddling with recipes and Drinks from when we cooked together Pressed between the pages are the Notes that we had left each other Lavender and bergamot and Orange flower water [Chorus] And you are a rough and bitter pill to swallow And you are a past temptation laid to rest And you are a sad reminder of my past And you are a drifting melody [Bridge] [Verse 3] Packed inside my wallet in my Pocket is the fortune from the Fortune cookie from that Chinese Restaurant that we had tried It said "Spring is sprung and Life is blooming." and i laughed at how It wasn't much a fortune but A commentary [Chorus] And you are a tough and bitter pill to swallow And you are a past temptation laid to rest And you are a stiff reminder of impermanence And you are an aging memory [Verse 4] Walk into the kitchen and you'll See a drawing of a man with Hearts for arms and legs stuck to the Door of the refrigerator You had drawn the picture as A silly little gift for me I kept the drawing to confirm That you were still with me
