Pills I took
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I've been awake for 8 days straight
Must've been them pills I took
I've been twistin' and turnin' and seein' visions
Must've been them pills I took
Hey I don't know what they were I don't know where I got 'em, but they sure make me feel good, that's all I ask for
There's blood on the carpet and holes in the walls
Must've been them pills I took
The beers are all busted, I hear someone cryin'
Must've been them pills I took
I still don't know what they were I don't know where I got 'em, but they sure make me feel good
They kept my heart from feelin' blue
They kept my thoughts away from you
That's all I ask for
Now I aint no bad man, but I done some bad things
Must've been them pills I took
I buy them, I sold it, I aint fuckin' joking
Must've been them pills I took
I'll never know what they were I'll never know where I got 'em, but they sure make me feel good
They kept my heart from feelin' blue
They kept my thoughts away from you
And that's all I ask for (It is, I swear)
