Sober

(album: Everything Else - 2018)

I couldn't see the hurt couldn't the need
Only saw the way you were looking at me
Couldn't see the fire that was smoldering
To be your desire was intoxicating

So I... took a sip, took a sip
From your lips, from your lips

And I lost my way, I lost my mind
I settled for less and I sacrificed
A thousand drinks still weren't enough
To satisfy my thirst for love

You pulled me under
Till I got over
I'll starve that hunger
Now I'm sober

At the bottom of the bottle it was all a mess
You filled me up with such emptiness
Jumped in to save ya, saw you struggling
Now your head's above water and I'm drowning

So I... took a sip, took a sip
Should I die so you can live?

And I lost my way, I lost my mind
I settled for less and I sacrificed
A thousand drinks still weren't enough
To satisfy my thirst for love

You pulled me under
Till I got over
I'll starve that hunger
Now I'm sober

And it's hard to escape the need to numb the pain
This is the choice I make, I'm ready for change

Don't drink the poison, drink it down
It's not worth it, pour it out
Don't drink the poison, drink it down
It's not worth it, pour it out

And I lost my way, I lost my mind
I settled for less and I sacrificed
A thousand drinks still weren't enough
To satisfy my thirst for love

I lost my way, I lost my mind
I settled for less and I sacrificed
A thousand drinks still weren't enough
To satisfy my thirst for love

You pulled me under
Till I got over
I'll starve that hunger
Now I'm sober
