Sober

tool - sober :

there's a shadow just behind me
shrouding every step i take.
making every promise empty
pointing every finger at me.

waiting like a stalking butler
who upon the finger rests.
murder now the path called "must we"
just before the son has come.

jesus, won't you fucking whistle
something but the past and 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 things 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, wont you whisper
something but the past is done?

why cant we not be sober?
i just want to start this over.
why cant 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.

trust me. trust me. trust me. trust me. trust me.

why cant we not be sober.
i just want to start things over.
why cant we sleep forever.
i just want to start this over.

i want what i want...
i want what i want...
i want what i want...
i want what i want.
