Description
Hard Pill is a song about heart break and how often it is a bitter ‘medicine’ to swallow. The first part of the song speaks of this heart-ache, with the second part looking for the positive side in it – with the realisation that change in life is always good. The songs instrumental part is representative of the intensity of the emotion in this kind of situation, with the climax of the song finally representing the peace and clarity found in retrospect of the event.
Lyrics
The crooked door swings on hinges as she bursts out crying It seems the love I was giving grew cold like a day that’s dying She goes out to find a new love It’s a hard pill to swallow - even now i sit and think of possibilities it’s a part of myself i’m trying to let go. But you see: she can’t stay alone with you, You see: she can’t stay alone with you She needs a change, she needs a change, she needs a change, We all need a change, we all need a change Sometime
