"sober" october 31, 2022
verse 1
i'm on the outside of you looking in
don't know why, but we can't let this end
not where you want me, no, i can't pretend
but you can't fucking say you're not as bad
you're more consistent, guess i'll give you that
but when you come down from the high, you're always mad
chorus 1
we can never love when we're sober
maybe i just always wanted closure
maybe i was wishing you were older
maybe i was hoping we got closer
when we're high it's like the world collapses
you and me on your mother's old mattress
scrollin tiktok looking for the fact checks
your parent's house, yeah we're living lavish
but it's only when we're high
only when we're high
verse 2
you're so distant, tell me where we went wrong
you used to always love this song
we've been fighting, making it for so long
i haven't been patient, i can say that much
i'm only ever happy when i get fucked up
at this point can you even call it love?
chorus 2
we can never love we're sober
maybe i just always wanted closure
maybe i was wishing you were older
maybe i was hoping we got closer
two drinks in we're all over each other
quiet so we don't bother your mother
she's amazing, you know that i love her
but she still thinks i love you like a brother
it's only when we're high
only when we're high
bridge
hungover sleepovers
your room's a smoke chamber
night before, still on the floor
with your coat hangers
crying, silent
but you know i love and want you
you're trying to hide it
but i know you love and want me too
chorus 3
we can never love when we're sober
maybe i just always wanted closure
maybe i was wishing you were older
maybe i was hoping we got closer
outro
maybe i was hoping we got closer
maybe I was hoping we got closer
maybe I was hoping we got closer
maybe I was hoping we got closer
maybe i was hoping we got closer
maybe I was hoping we got closer
maybe I was hoping we got closer
maybe I was hoping we got closer
baby, I don't think that we'll get closer
baby, I don't think that we'll get closer
baby, I don't think that we'll get closer
baby, I don't think that we'll get closer
baby, I don't think that we'll get closer
baby, I don't think that we'll get closer
baby, please don't tell me that it's over
stupid of me thinking we'd get closer
- no I do not relate to this in any way shape or form
