"Recover"

They told me, "Go to rehab," I said yes, yes, yes
Been thinkin' I was a rock star, yeah, not just another mess
But I picked a couple poisons + I rode them to the ground
I told myself I needed them to make a soulful sound

Now sober is a look that I would highly recommend
Try it on + make it fit or meet a tragic end
Yeah sober is a look that I would highly recommend
Try it on + make it fit or meet a tragic end

I'm gonna make me some new friends + find an artful lover
I've been so wrecked + ruined but I know I will recover
I walked the devil's road + now I wanna run another
I've lost so many years to hell, it's heaven to recover

Who knows what you'll discover if you let yourself recover

I told them it's no problem; if you were drunk you might believe it
My sorry ass was drowning + the world began to leave it
I held on to the ship so hard while I slowly felt it sink
What the hell, who cares, big deal, pour me another drink

Now sober is the way I roll because I want to live
Perpetually hungover, oh, I had no strength to give
Yeah sober is the way I roll because I want to live
Perpetually hungover, oh, I had no strength to give

Clear, clear, clear, yeah my head's an open sky
Fear, fear, fear, is all I felt, now I know why
When you're running from your traumas you will never be reborn
Now's the time to slow it down + take the space to mourn

Cry with me, cry with me
