EN

Holding fast until The rent checks wear thin Because it hasn't sunk in, so far When it's a drab routine The dust starts building Until its hard to come clean Then my months stack up To an addictive crush As if the drink weren't enough A stagger cannot compete There's no charm in being A residential state street And if I was sober Would I kill caution and stay over? And if I was sober Would I rip hearts apart like paper? I wish you could know Better than you show With parted lips pointing down That the whiskey soothes More than you could ever do And if I was sober Would I kill caution and stay over? And if I was sober Would I rip hearts apart like paper? What a difference it'd make And what a different it'd make And if I was sober Would I kill caution and stay over? And if I was sober Would I rip hearts apart like paper? What a difference it'd make And what a different it'd make
