Pride

Album: Unbroke (2024)

  • You left a mark
    On my face
    And brought a dozen red flags
    In a vase
    You thought everything would be okay
    But it's not okay

    Nobody saw
    The other side
    You turn into Jekyll
    And I'd run and Hyde
    And I'd come back
    I don't know why
    I don't know why

    You'll take whiskey
    You'll take wine
    You'll take anything as long as it was mine
    And you choke it down
    And chase it with a lie
    The only thing that you can't swallow is your pride, oh

    Are you insane?
    Or are you brilliant?
    Am I crazy?
    Or just resilient?
    I'll never know
    And you'll never tell
    The kids don't know that truth, maybe that's just as well

    You'll take whiskey
    You'll take wine
    You'll take anything as long as it was mine
    And you choke it down
    And chase it with a lie
    The only thing that you can't swallow is your pride, mm

    Even now that I'm leaving
    You won't say you're wrong
    And you'll never believe it
    That I'm moving on without you
    Yeah, I wrote this song about you
    Yeah, I wrote this song about you

    You'll take whiskey
    You'll take wine
    You'll take anything as long as it was mine
    And you choke it down
    And chase it with a lie
    The only thing you can't swallow is your pride, oh, ooh Writer/s: Madeline Lee Diaz Svalgard, Sara Evans, Sean Michael McConnell
