Sober

There's a shadow just behind me

Shrouding every step I make

Making every promise empty

Pointing every finger at me

Waiting like a stalking butler

Who upon the finger rests

Murder now the path called must we

Just before the son has come

Jesus, won't you fucking whistle nothing but the past and done

Jesus, won't you fucking whistle nothing but the past and done

Why can't we not be sober?

I just want to start this over

Why can't we sleep forever?

I just want to start this over

I am just a worthless liar

I am just an imbecile

I will only complicate you

Trust in me and fall as well

I will find a center in you

I will chew it up and leave

I will work to elevate you

Just enough to bring you down

Mother Mary won't you whisper nothing

But the past and done

Mother Mary won't you whisper nothing

But the past and done

Why can't we not be sober?

I just want to start this over

Why can't we sleep forever

I just want to start things over

I am just a worthless liar

I am just an imbecile

I will only complicate you

Trust in me and fall as well

I will find a center in you

I will chew it up and leave

Trust me X5

Why can't we not be sober?

I just want to start this over

Why can't we drink forever

I just want to start things over

Trust me X2

I want what I want X4
