Pills I Swallow Lyrics

It started on that night
I never left your side
I'll have you know
Always ends up in a fight
So callous
Its you
Its you
Its always you
You're telling me
What not to do
So callous

Oh Isla
You were only asked to find her
Oh Isla
You were only asked to find her

Will you let me finish now
Will you let me finish now

I'll keep you in my sight
I never want to fight
I'll have you know
And your eyes are water tight
So callous
ts you
Its you
Its always you
You're telling me
What not to do
So callous

Oh Isla
You were only asked to find her
Oh Isla
You were only asked to find her

Will you let me finish now
Will you let me finish now

You were only asked to find her
You were only asked to find her

Oh Isla
Oh Isla
Oh Isla

Will you let me finish now
Will you let me finish now

You were only asked to find her
You were only asked to find her

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Andy: "This was a reworked version of a song we wrote long before the rest of them on the record. We had loads of small ideas lurking about, and I revisited this one not too long before going into the studio. It always reminded me of Lee Hazlewood, which I listen to a lot while working on this record."
