shrouding every step I take,
making every promise empty,
pointing every finger at me.

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 things over.

I am just an imbecile.

 [bad word] in me and fall as well.

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.

I want what I want.
I want what I want.
I want what I want.
I want what I want.
