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.
I'm in the kitchen, 20 to midnight
I just got home and I hear my phone, oh no
I see it on the piano ringing
I see your name, I slide left to speak
Then five minutes later I'm in my car
And I'm on my way over
You've been drinking or you would've called her
You never need me whenever you're sober
No, why do I stay
To entertain your same old ways?
'Cause I just listen and I just trust ya
'Cause you're too wasted and I'm too sober
No way, get out
I'm screaming to myself right now
'Cause you say nice things and I just trust ya
'Cause you're too wasted and I'm too sober
I'm in your kitchen, a quarter to 3
My tears, they're falling
You will not catch them
Why do I ignore my friends and their warnings?
I'm so stupid, you start to snore now
This is my own fault
I'm running out of excuses to blame you
Why do I run when you're crying the wolf song?
I'm losing track of the nights that I gave you
No, why do I stay
To entertain your same old ways?
'Cause I just listen and I just trust ya
'Cause you're too wasted and I'm too sober
No way, get out
I'm screaming to myself right now
'Cause you say nice things and I just trust ya
'Cause you're too wasted and I'm too sober
Driving home
I decide to play Gloria Gaynor
'Cause I will survive
No more of you, I have made my mind up
Now I won't stay
To entertain your same old ways
And I won't listen and I won't trust ya
And you'll stay wasted and I'll be sober
No, I'm out
I'm screaming to myself right now
'Cause you're a liar and I don't want ya
And you'll stay wasted and I'll be sober from you
