Sober (Live Acoustic)

Staind · The Singles 1996-2006 [2006]

Every shadow just behind me

Shrouding every step I make

Breaking every promise empty

Pointing every finger at me

Waiting like a stalking butler

Who upon the finger rests

Murder now the path has lost me

Just because the sun has set

Jesus was a fucking whistler

Nothing but the past is done

Jesus was a fucking whistler

Nothing but the past is done

Why can't we not be sober?

I just want to start this over

Why can't we sleep forever?

I just want to start this over

I am just a worthless liar

I am just an imbecile

I will only complicate you

Trust in me and fall as well

I will find a center in you

I will chew it up and leave



I will work to elevate you

Just enough to bring you down

Mother Mary was a whisper

Nothing but the past is done

Mother was fucking whisper

Nothing but the past is done

Why can't we not be sober?

I just want to start this over

Why can't we drink forever?

I just want to start this over this time

I am just a worthless liar

I am just an imbecile

I will only complicate you

Trust in me and fall as well

I will find a center in you

I will chew it up and leave

Trust me [x5]

Why can't we not be sober?

I just want to start things over

Why can't we drink forever?

I just want to start this over this time

I want what I want [x4]
