"Bitter Pill" lyrics

"Bitter Pill"

So, let's just get one thing straight:
I'm on this earth for me, not for you
And I could give a fuck who you think you are
And I could care less what you do
I piss on your legacy
It looks like some cheap fool's gold to me
And your entire being means even less than that
So, you best lay off of me

Because I'm free like the birds
Which will circle your corpse
And pick at your bones, the scraps you left
Only to chirp in disgust and rip out your epitaph

Oh, fire in the sky
Take me home, let me lie
In my own free will
When I take this bitter pill

In the end, we'll all look back
In abhorrence, the deck was stacked
And forged against us so evil could prosper
In our place, we stood, forlorn
Well, so much for legacy
We've lost this inhuman race
We tripped and fell upon the crooked crosses
Which lay neglected, strewn, and chipped

Just to be free like the birds
Which will circle your corpse
And pick at your bones, the scraps you left
Only to chirp in disgust and rip out your epitaph

Oh, fire in the sky
Take me home, let me lie
In my own free will
When I take this bitter pill

Oh, because we're free
Because we're free
Because we're free

So, let's just get one thing straight:
I'm on this earth for me, not for you
And I could give a fuck who you think you are
And I could care less what you do
I piss on your legacy
It looks like some cheap fool's gold to me
And your entire being means even less than that
So, you best lay off of me

Because I'm free like the birds
Which will circle your corpse
And pick at your bones, the scraps you left
Only to chirp in disgust and rip out your epitaph

Oh, life's such a bitter pill
