Bonepony Sugar On The Pill (Live)
Never walked on the water,
Never changed none to wine
I did my best to try to please you
But miracles these days are hard to find
And even true believers sometimes need a sign
Felt like a dagger in my rib-cage,
Struck me with an unforgiving blow
But I won't go begging for your favor
'Cause my well's deeper than you know
Don't cry for my compassion in your convalescent air
'Cause I'll tell you where to go
Don't want no Sugar on the Pill
Like water from a well
So sweet it's hard to tell
What you gonna do when the chaff comes down
Don't want no Sugar on the Pill
Will you run to your daddy when it all comes down
Like a whisper in the wind
You'll hear it now and then
Sometimes the truth is a bitter pill to swallow
Momma told me never look into the sun
But I had to learn the hard way
'Cause that's how things are often done
Now I'm staring out the window
And there's spots before my eyes
I've been blinded by a star
I guess that comes as no surprise
Don't want no Sugar on the Pill
I'll take my bad news bad
Don't want no Sugar on the Pill
Like water from a well...
So sweet it's tough to tell
What you gonna do when the chaff comes down
Don't want no Sugar on the Pill
Like a whisper in the wind
You'll hear it now and then
Sometimes the truth is a bitter pill to swallow
I'll take my bad news bad
Don't want no Sugar on the Pill
And that means I'll take the good news good as well
Well it's hard, hard to do
Tasting the truth is the first step in healing
Promises you made in the moonlight
People always tell me never look back
Promises you made in the moonlight
When you told me that you wouldn't then you sold me down the river
