Sober Lyrics
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 of must we,
just because the son has come.
Jesus, won't you f*cking whistle
something but the past is done?
Jesus, won't you f*cking whistle
something but the past is done?
Why can we not be sober?
I just want to start this over.
And 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 only complicate you.
Trust 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 is done.
Mother Mary won't you whisper
something but the past is done.
Why can 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 only complicate you.
Trust in me and fall as well.
I will find a center in you.
I will chew it up and leave,
Trust me, trust me, trust me,
trust me, and trust me
Why can we not be sober?
I just want to start this 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
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 of must we,
just because the son has come.
Jesus, won't you f*cking whistle
something but the past is done?
Jesus, won't you f*cking whistle
something but the past is done?
Why can we not be sober?
I just want to start this over.
And 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 only complicate you.
Trust 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
something but the past is done.
Mother Mary won't you whisper
something but the past is done.
Why can 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 only complicate you.
Trust in me and fall as well.
I will find a center in you.
I will chew it up and leave,
Trust me, trust me, trust me,
trust me, and trust me
Why can we not be sober?
I just want to start this 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

Its the diseased mind fighting vs the spiritual nature in everyone,somthing but the past endured meaning the good is sitting quietly beneath the evil ,uprooting its nature when the pain gets to great ,its a fight for balance between good and bad

Why can we not be not sober? So I ask you, why do you do your drugs, what is the reason for your escape? Why is Jesus not to answer? Maynard's meaning.

I feel that its a lament about how we burn thru our time with disconnection sports that strip away the very truth of humanity. Jesus can't even whistle our way, Mary knew God knocked her up and its really on faith that we can soak our feet in at the end of the day. We all want to Know, but sadd

As an addict, I think it's saying, why is it so bad to have what I want (drugs, alcohol) even though I'm manipulating & lying to a person who cares about me. The lyrics at the end 'I want what I want' is imo, the way most addicts feel. At least I do.

It is an addiction to a fake life that they speak of not drugs, people spend their lives looking back when we must speak of progress and spiritual evolution not the same daily banter of sheep baaaaaaa

Very simple, The song about if you wanna do drugs you should be able to. Why can't we NOT be Sober? Adam himself said this in an interview.

first off ask the songwriter. If you try to decipher the meaning for yourself, you will only filter the meaning through your own experiences.if you were an addic you will see it through that prism.

This is about addiction and its root cause. As someone who abuses alcohol, the lyrics are spot on. You regret, you just want to start over and use the knowledge of your mistakes . Why can't we just be sober? I just want to start this over.
