I Wish I Was Sober

Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] Forgive me, I can't speak straight Forgive me, I can't Forgive me, it's far too late [Verse 2] Choke down the gateway drug Open 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 a 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 un-sink the things I've sunk Still not giving up Though I wish that I was sober [Chorus] Forgive me, I can't speak straight Forgive me, I can't Forgive me, it's far too late [Outro] Oh, come and shake me till I'm dry Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh Oh, I wish that I was sober Oh, come to me and kill the night off Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh I wish that I was sober Oh, come and shake me till I'm dry Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh Oh, I wish that I was sober Oh, come to me and kill the night off Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh I wish that I was sober
