Sober (Live) by Quinn Oulton

Morning light
Strikes your eyes
Filthy floor
Foggy head

Memories of
The night before
Absent as
Your empty bed

Try to self compose
Find your phone
In the room
Of your sober friend

Confusion soon
Leads you to
An open wound
Nothing but dread

Cos you found yourself alone with someone who
Decided they can make your mind up for you

A friend disguised
Your mind tries
to conceptualise
The damage he did

You're acting fine
‘Til your friends decide
To take a side
And just disappear

Avoid the strain
Ignore the pain
He's probably changed
I don’t wanna hear it

The fact is you found yourself alone with someone who
Decided they can make your mind up for you

No one makes that choice
But you

You’re through the worst
Now take your time
To focus on yourself
Completely

And let your fickle friends
Step aside
For open minds
Who listen to you

I’m not saying I’ll
Be able to
Heal you
Make everything easy

But just so you know you’re not alone when I’m with you
I promise I’ll be here for you to turn to
Just know you’re not alone when I’m with you
