I Wish I Was Sober

Fall prey to the blizzard head Wrapped my hand around the glass again We all thought that I might change as I got older Fell down and nothing bled Wrapped in cotton alcohol again "To the hilt," I hear from the prick upon my shoulder Free pour the fruitless thoughts It's far too late to talk so much but Still not giving up Though I wish that I was sober Forgive me, I can't speak straight Forgive me, I can't Forgive me, it's far too late Choke down the gateway drug Opened the gates, in came the flood, it comes Like a blush of love, it hits me without warning Long nights of getting lost I walk beneath the bridge I don't know I need a black suit for tomorrow, I'm in mourning My love, you should know The best of me left hours ago, so Shove a rag into my mouth and let me smolder Fallout and the damage done I can't unsink the things I've sunk Still not giving up Though I wish that I was sober Forgive me, I can't speak straight Forgive me, I can't Forgive me, it's far too late Oh, come and shake me 'til I'm dry (ooh) Oh, I wish that I was sober Oh, come to me and kill the night off (ooh) I wish that I was sober Oh, come and shake me 'til I'm dry (ooh) Oh, I wish that I was sober Oh, come to me and kill the night off (ooh) I wish that I was sober
