Tool - Sober (Undertow, 1993)

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 buttler

Who upon the finger rests

Murder now the pattern must we

Just because the son has come

Jesus won't you fucking whistle?

Something but the past and done

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

And why can't we drink 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 centre in you

I will chew it up and leave

I will work to elevate you

Just enough to bring you down

Mother Mary won't you whisper?

Something but what's past and done

Mother Mary won't you whisper?

Something but what's past and done

Why can't we not be sober?

I just want to start this over

And why can't we sleep forever?

I just want to start this over

And why?

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 centre in you

I will chew it up and leave

Trust me

Trust me

Trust me

Trust me

Trust me

Why can't we not be sober?

I just want to start things over

And why can't we sleep forever?

I just want to start this over

And why?

I want it when I want it

I want it when I want it

I want it when I want it

I want it when I want it
