The bitter pill will save your soul
and bring you back to life
And immunize your spirit
from a world of stress and strife

The bitter pill will make you whole
and put you back on track
Reversing years of atrophy,
abuse, even attack

The bitter pill will ease your pain
and make you smile again
Ensuring that your healing
is no longer "if" but "when"

The bitter pill will cure you
for it soothes what has been scarred
Yes, it does all this and more
but, friend, you've got to swallow hard

Most aren't ready for this treatment
most will shun this to be sure
Most could have it but choose not to
so their lives of pain endure

Yes, to remedy a life of woe
the bitter pill is this:
Not a soul but you has stood between
your bleakness and your bliss
