Lyricz: 
 
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 ***ing whistle. Something but the past is done.  
 
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 this 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.  
 
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 this 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. Trust 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...
