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 is must we 
 just because the son [bad word]  

 Jesus, won't you [bad word] whistle 
 something but the past and done? (x2)

 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 [bad word] you. 
 [bad word] 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 won't you whisper 
 something but the past and done. (x2)

 Why can't we not be sober? 
 I Just want to start this over. 
 Why can't we sleep forever? 
 I Just want to start things over. 

 I am just a worthless liar. 
 I am just an imbecile. 
 I will [bad word] you. 
 [bad word] in me and fall as well. 
 I will find a center in you. 
 I will chew it up and leave. 

 [bad word] me. [bad word] me. [bad word] me. [bad word] me. [bad word] Me. 

 Why can't we not be sober? 
 I Just want to start things over.
 Why can't we sleep forever? 
 I Just want to start this over.
