Sober
I did a backbend when I saw you
You were floating across us
You had a whole vibe, none could've taught it
At the end of the world
So when you know, when you know it's right
When a day becomes your whole life
I'm standing here, in between the lines
Guess I've never had a guiding light
That's why it's hard to be sober
Thin talk when I saw you
Takes some time to get honest
Tough calls when you're novice
At the end of the world
Yes, all men, crooks and robbers
And still, nobody stopped us
A hard truth when she needs softness
At the end of the world
So when you know, when you know it's right
When a day becomes your whole life
I'm standing here, in between the lines
Guess I've never had a guiding light
That's why it's hard to be sober
That's why it's hard to be sober
That's why it's hard to be sober
I live life on two planes, and most days, they're both delayed
Missing all your phone calls, I just wanna go away
When you're not near me, every song's a throwaway
Reminds me of my through lines, some curses just generate
Our difference is astounding, running out of things to say
I'm just tryin' to show love, scared of being cliché
Sometimes I miss the boat, sometimes I make mistakes
Texting that I'm on my way, know that you don't wanna wait
So when you know, when you know it's right
When a day becomes your whole life
I'm standing here, in between the lines
Guess I've never had a guiding light
That's why it's hard to be sober
That's why it's hard to be sober
That's why it's hard to be sober
You were floating across us
You had a whole vibe, none could've taught it
At the end of the world
So when you know, when you know it's right
When a day becomes your whole life
I'm standing here, in between the lines
Guess I've never had a guiding light
That's why it's hard to be sober
Thin talk when I saw you
Takes some time to get honest
Tough calls when you're novice
At the end of the world
Yes, all men, crooks and robbers
And still, nobody stopped us
A hard truth when she needs softness
At the end of the world
So when you know, when you know it's right
When a day becomes your whole life
I'm standing here, in between the lines
Guess I've never had a guiding light
That's why it's hard to be sober
That's why it's hard to be sober
That's why it's hard to be sober
I live life on two planes, and most days, they're both delayed
Missing all your phone calls, I just wanna go away
When you're not near me, every song's a throwaway
Reminds me of my through lines, some curses just generate
Our difference is astounding, running out of things to say
I'm just tryin' to show love, scared of being cliché
Sometimes I miss the boat, sometimes I make mistakes
Texting that I'm on my way, know that you don't wanna wait
So when you know, when you know it's right
When a day becomes your whole life
I'm standing here, in between the lines
Guess I've never had a guiding light
That's why it's hard to be sober
That's why it's hard to be sober
That's why it's hard to be sober
