[Intro]

Close to Sober

Shouldn't be here I

Was supposed to walk the line

Close to Sober

Just give me some time

To clear up my mind and leave


[Verse 1]

No, my wine ain't strong enough

To erase the feeling

Of being self-deceiving

Claiming I am tough

Yet all the little stories

That I tell to drown the sound

Of something screaming deep in

This bed I shouldn't sleep in!

Still have me holding out


[Pre-Chorus 1]

I will deny my crime

There's no love insidе

I'm not yours

Till the end of time


[Chorus]

Closе to Sober

Shouldn't be here I

Was supposed to walk the line

Close to Sober

Just give me some time

To clear up my mind and

Leave while standing tall

I'm not one to crawl

Not the one to fall

Not the One at all


[Verse 2]

Five more drinks and I forget

This pain excruciating

From the way you're slaying my heart to the ground

And all the little stories

How you want us to be one

All so unauthentic

Still ran to you frantic

Look where it got me now


[Pre-Chorus 2]

I will deny my crime

There's no love inside

I am numb

Played you just for fun and

Now I hide

Let the truth subside

That I'm yours

Till the end of time


[Chorus]

Close to Sober

Shouldn't be here I

Was supposed to walk the line

Close to Sober

Just give me some time

To clear up my mind and

Leave while standing tall

I'm not one to crawl

Not the one to fall

Not the One at all

Not the one to fall

Not the One at all
