Serj Tankian - Sober

Tekst :

There s a shadow just behind me,
shrouding every breath 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 called must we,
just before the son has come.

Jesus, won t you fucking whistle?
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 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.Trust me.

Mother Mary won t you whisper?
Something but what s past and done.
Mother won t you fucking 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 (x5)

Why can t we not be sober?
I just want to start this over.
Why can t we fuck forever?
I just want to start this over.

I want what I want. (x3)

    Six or seven times

    St. Louis woman, she s never pleased,
    She says there s one good man who ll soon be deceived,
    If she can t hear from him each night at least
    Six or seven times.

    She says the other songs don t mean a thing,
    There s only one that makes...

    Black metal baptism

    I chose the blackest robe
    Shadow, darkness before the light
    I threw away the false life
    artificial and worthless
    I kept only the deep mysteries of Satan

    Black metal baptism opened the gates
    to darkness and gave me the powers
    of sorcerers
    The sign of black pentagram
    burned deep...

    If i should die tonight

    Sometimes I think about dyin
    Yeahhh-haaa
    Unfortunately, I m seein a lot of death in my life
    Oahhhooooh
    I seen a lot of friends die
    I seen a lot of family members die
    If, I, should, diiiiie tonight
    When I think about dyin, I think about
    Won t it be,...

    The last time

    I faintly remember yesterday,
    Oh so close yet far away,
    From the lives that we once etched in stone
    Who would think that it would last
    Please just give it one more chance
    Forever is a word that only grows

    And never in this saddest moment
    I feel we re letting go
    And if you take me, please...

    If i fall

    This is for the ones who believes their lives won t change
    Hoping then someday things will meant and be the same
    And this is for the ones who have lost it all and all that s left to gain
    Is a simple reminder that the things that were blind to slip away...

    How...
