Bitter Medicine Lyrics by The Crane Wives

Beyond Beyond Beyond

2024

[Verse 1]
Somebody take my keys, I’m in no shape for driving
I made my bed but I’ll sleep anywhere, anywhere
Are you ashamed of me, or did you buy what I’m selling?
It won’t last you long
It’ll disappear
[Chorus]
I bite my tongue to keep the worst of the words in
So they don’t hurt nobody but me
Swallow the poison I wanna spit
Bitter medicine
I think it’s making me sick
Don’t look up to me
I’m not as tall as you think
You see, I talk a big game
But it’s bullshit
[Verse 2]
Somebody clean me up, it’s a mess that I’m making
The pain is weak but it spreads anyway, anyway
Is it a gift you give, or something precious I’m taking?
Stolen sympathy
For all my worst mistakes
[Chorus]
I bite my tongue to keep the worst of the words in
So they don’t hurt nobody but me
Swallow the poison I wanna spit
Bitter medicine
I think it’s making me sick
Don’t look up to me
I’m not as tall as you think
You see, I talk a big game
But it’s bullshit
[Bridge]
Ah, ah, ah, ah, oh, ah, ah, oh
Ah, ah, ah, ah, oh, ah, ah, oh
Ah, ah, ah, ah, oh, ah, ah, oh
Ah, ah, ah, ah, oh, ah, ah, oh
Ah, ah, ah, ah, oh, ah, ah, oh
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ahh-oh
[Chorus]
I bite my tongue to keep the worst of the words in
So they don’t hurt nobody but me
Swallow the poison I wanna spit
Bitter medicine
I think it’s making me sick
Don’t look up to me
I’m not as tall as you think
You see, I talk a big game
But it’s bullshit
