Lyrics
Sober
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well this wine looks lonely on that shelf
Well it won't drink itself and I'm sober
I'm even wrong when I'm right
But I only cry when I'm sober
Pay no mind
Last time I tried
It just hurt too much
But I'm fine
I'll fix it all
When I'm sober
You and me won't mean us anymore
I'll pretend I don't mind but it's over
Now that we're free, free to do what we want
I pretend it's not over
Pay no mind
Last time I tried
It just hurt too much
But I'm fine
I'll fix it all
When I'm sober
Well darlin'
I think of you from time to time
You know, every once in a while
It's gotten better
Now it's every other night
But also the nights in between
And every second of every hour of every day
And I wonder
Will that day ever come when I don't wonder why
Yeah I could've been nicer
But you lied
Pay no mind
Last time I tried
It just hurt too much
But I'm fine
I'll fix it all and pay no mind
The last time I tried
It just hurt too much
But I'm fine
I'll fix it all
When I'm sober
