Sober from Gold Dust by Valere

Baby I grit my teeth
Worry ‘bout things unseen
Like I'm bracing for impact
It's not a lot of fun
A drug I'm strung out on
Can't seem to break the habit

But why's your mind so clear?
Do you not feel the fear or wonder what could happen?
You say there's no use
Who's got the time to lose?

I wanna be sober, sober, sober, sober like you
'Cause baby I'm over, over, over feeling so blue

One strike and then I'm gone
I'd rather a heart of stone
Than mine that's made of plastic
But you've got a will of steel
Do you not feel the fear or wonder what could happen?

Baby can you hold the line
'Cause I don't know when I'll be fine
Spare me some forgiveness 'cause this might be a while
But know that in the end I don't wanna be scared all the time
