I Wish I Was Sober Songtext

von Frightened Rabbit

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 it right into my mouth and let me smolder
Fallout and the damage done
I can't un-sing the things I've sung
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 till I'm dry
Oh I wish that I was sober
Oh come to me and kill the night off
I wish that I was sober

Oh come and shake me till I'm dry
Oh I wish that I was sober
Oh come to me and kill the night off
I wish that I was sober
