Pills is the first track on our official first release, The Refraze Sessions.
This track is a very personal song lyrically. One that's about bearing the weight of the struggles that come with addiction, as well as a hopeful look at overcoming them in the end.
Musically, each of our inspirations shine through in the recording, making pills an addictive opening. First impressions are everything, right?
Lyrics
When you wake up to the morning sun
Do you feel like you're the only one
Do you think you should've stayed asleep
Or is this another promise that you can't keep
Can you and I make a compromise
Or would that be another mistake
I know that I have no explanation
For why I have to keep on taking these pills
It's more than I can bear
I feel ill
But I like the pain and I still
I still need you to explain
Why I have to keep on taking these pills
Night roller,
Do you walk these streets when you're sober
Will you climb that hill when it's over
Do you reminisce
Of the days you were high
Like the stars in the sky
Can you and I make a compromise
Or would that be another mistake
I know I have no explanation
For why I have to keep on taking these pills
It's always the same
I feel ill
I've gotten good at faking, I still
I still need you to explain
Why I have to keep on taking
These hills that I have to climb
It's the thrill of it all that keeps me up at night
It's the chill in the air
That makes my chest so tight
But when I come down
I know I'm gonna be alright
Oh lord I'm gonna be alright
