When We're Sober

It's hard to hear the truth over bass

It's hard to see the lies in these lights

You can hide on a night like this

Hard to hear your heart over the rhythm

Four on the floor 'til everything's forgiven

Hard for me to think when the drinks start pouring

These bottles stop the pain until the morning comes

There's no repentance in the penthouse

No religion when the lights out

If you love me

Love me when the party's over

When we're sober

When we're sober

If this were real

We'd talk for real

We'd be closer

When we're not hungover

When we're sober

I can only blame myself

Acting like I don't know better

Like it doesn't hurt to let you in

But after all this alcohol the champagne and the Aperol

I bend (again)

We're not close and we're not lovers sometimes wonder

If we're even friends

It feels different

Once the evening ends there's distance

If you love me

Love me when the party's over

When we're sober

When we're sober

If this were real

We'd talk for real

We'd be closer

When we're not hungover

When we're sober

We don't know how to love

Only how to make it

We don't know how to trust

Only violate it

Maybe we just need time and communication

But when we say we should talk we just end up naked

And I hate it

I am not your entertainment

Make it painless

Find you someone else to play with

I'm jaded

I'm faded

I'm shameless

And all that I wanted to say is

If you love me

Love me when the party's over

When we're sober

When we're sober

If this were real

We'd talk for real

We'd be closer

When we're not hungover

When we're sober
