You said you could take this   You said it wouldn't get ugly again   You know, you can't meditate this   You wish it never began      I want to be sober   I want to be like a river   Just let my life flow through me   But I can't connect with a loaded gun at my head      You started to worry   You bent yourself to get under the hand   And now, with your shipwreck stories   You say you don't understand      I want to be sober   I want to be like a river   Just let my life flow through me   But I can't connect with a loaded gun at my head
