I'll Look Good When I'm Sober

I've been thinking about you a lot more than I should,

Caught my finger slipping up the same page of my telephone book.

But just hear me out, or let me in

Signing the guest list

Places we've been

Hoping with a soft spot that there's a chance of bumping into you

Tell me what does your heart say, would you listen anyway?

I promise you I'll look good when I'm sober

Tell me what have you got, when you gave it all away?

I promise you I'll look good when I'm sober

Still mingling with bouncers unhappy where I'm stood

Feeling like I miss the way you kiss me, mimic your lips with a sharp left hook

So I look to her

Took on the chin

Blood on a jumper

Tuck your shirt in

Hopefully don't need you, but comforting pretending that I do

Tell me what does your heart say, would you listen anyway?

I promise you I'll look good when I'm sober

Tell me what have you got, when you gave it all away?

I promise you I'll look good when I'm sober

And you know just what to say

But the phone call's not the same

So just hear me out

Or let me in

I miss the hangnails

Pits of your skin

Those eyes of hers, looking at him

I think a punch would hurt less than this

Bathed under an ocean

A touch of hotel lights

The gasping of attention

The rolling of your eyes

Oh, don't make me go

I could be so much better

Could be what you want

Cold pillars of steel

Pressed before my tongue

Would love it if it were your lips

Would settle for a gun

Tell me what does your heart say would you listen anyway

I promise you I'll look good when I'm sober

Tell me what have you got, when you gave it all away

I promise you I'll look good when I'm sober
