[Conor Oberst's not sober lyrics @ConorOberstBot]

this whole world's got to buy you a drink
got to take you to the edge and watch you throw it up
every morning I could give a damn what I did last night

[Conor Oberst's not sober lyrics @ConorOberstBot]

Every night I think
I certainly won't ever sleep sober or alone
And then suddenly it occurs to me
I've slept alone before you
And so I pour myself
The stiffest drink my stomach can stand

[Conor Oberst's not sober lyrics @ConorOberstBot]

always looking for something to sniff, smoke, or swallow

[Conor Oberst's not sober lyrics @ConorOberstBot]

Will you, will you, will you?
If you don't, I'll start drinking like the way I drank before
And I just won't have a future anymore

[Conor Oberst's not sober lyrics @ConorOberstBot]

I fell for the promise of a life with a purpose
But I know that that's impossible now
And so I drink to stay warm
And to kill selected memories

[Conor Oberst's not sober lyrics @ConorOberstBot]

I pour myself the stiffest drink my stomach can stand
And convince myself to lay back down again

[Conor Oberst's not sober lyrics @ConorOberstBot]

I'm pouring myself some whiskey
I'm gonna get real fucking drunk
That I pass out and forget your face
By the time I wake up

[Conor Oberst's not sober lyrics @ConorOberstBot]

Now I'm drunk as hell
On a piano bench
And when I press the keys
It all gets reversed
The sound of loneliness
Makes me happier

[Conor Oberst's not sober lyrics @ConorOberstBot]

Working on the record seems pointless now
When the world ends, who's gonna hear it?

[Conor Oberst's not sober lyrics @ConorOberstBot]

So go ahead and loose yourself in liquor
And you can praise the clouded mind
But it isn't what you're thinking, no
It's the course of history, your position in line
You're just a piece of the puzzle
So I think you'd better find your place

[Conor Oberst's not sober lyrics @ConorOberstBot]

With these drinks I plan to collapse
And forget this wasted year, these wasted years
Devoted friends, they disappear

[Conor Oberst's not sober lyrics @ConorOberstBot]

I got a flask inside my pocket, we can share it on the train
And if you promise to stay conscious, I'll try and do the same
Well, we might die from medication but we sure killed all the pain

[Conor Oberst's not sober lyrics @ConorOberstBot]

I fell for the promise of a life with a purpose
But I know that that's impossible now
And so I drink to stay warm
And to kill selected memories

[Conor Oberst's not sober lyrics @ConorOberstBot]

If you hate the taste of wine
Why do you drink it 'till you're blind?

[Conor Oberst's not sober lyrics @ConorOberstBot]

Now I'm drunk as hell on a piano bench
and when I press the keys it all gets reversed
the sound of loneliness makes me happier

[Conor Oberst's not sober lyrics @ConorOberstBot]

Just drink until the clock has circled all the way

[Conor Oberst's not sober lyrics @ConorOberstBot]

You wonder if you are alive
And you're not sure if you want to be
But you drink her sweat like it was wine

[Conor Oberst's not sober lyrics @ConorOberstBot]

So we trade liquor for blood in an attempt to tip the scales
I think you lost what you loved in that mess of details
They seemed so important at the time
But now you can’t even recall

[Conor Oberst's not sober lyrics @ConorOberstBot]
