Alcohol was my sweet escape
For the pain I couldn't take
So much I'd rather fake
Anything for a blank slate
Flying high like I have a cape
Dare not, make no mistake
All the fuzz I need a break
Don't want to lose and seal my fate
Everything's alright cause I'm sober
Though things ain't really over
Know that I can cry on your shoulder
Everything is clear when you're sober
Sober
Forcing me to have one take
I pull away, no I won't break
In a place where nothing's at stake
Trying hard to maintain my state
Reality, there's no escape
In the dark, there's so much hate
But I have some decisions to make
Is it worth making another mistake
With everything that's happening
Hold my hand and do one thing
Tell me it ain't all life brings
Ready for my awakening
With everything that's happening
Hold my hand and do one thing
Tell me it ain't all life brings
Ready for my awakening
Everything's alright cause I'm sober
Though things ain't really over
Know that I can cry on your shoulder
Everything is clear when you're sober
Sober
Sober
Know that I can cry on your shoulder
Everything is clear when you're sober"
