Serj Tankian - Sober

Tekst :

There s a shadow just behind me,
shrouding every breath I take,
making every promise empty,
pointing every finger at me.
Waiting like a stalking butler
who upon the finger rests.
Murder now the path called must we,
just before the son has come.

Jesus, won t you fucking whistle?
something but the past and done. (x2)

Why can t we not be sober?
I just want to start this over.
Why can t we drink forever.
I just want to start this over.

I am just a worthless liar.
I am just an imbecile.
I will only complicate you.
Trust in me and fall as well.
I will find a center in you.
I will chew it up and leave,
I will work to elevate you
Just enough to bring you down.Trust me.

Mother Mary won t you whisper?
Something but what s past and done.
Mother won t you fucking whisper?
Something but the past is done.

Why can t we not be sober?
I just want to start this over.
Why can t we sleep forever?
I just want to start this over.

I am just a worthless liar.
I am just an imbecile.
I will only complicate you.
Trust in me and fall as well.
I will find a center in you.
I will chew it up and leave.

Trust me (x5)

Why can t we not be sober?
I just want to start this over.
Why can t we fuck forever?
I just want to start this over.

I want what I want. (x3)

    Nature is the law

    Old river and your
    Restless wonder and your
    Graceful leisure rolling to the sea
    How many men have stood like I am
    Gazing out and wishing for someone
    Some are living and
    Some are dead and
    Some are hiding, waiting for the sun...

    Altar boy

    A monk with a hard-on
    And a lavender robe
    That scratches his thighs
    Through the hat that he strode
    As he follows a path
    Filled with every desire
    And mimics his footsteps
    And sets his prayers on fire.

    Well I too...

    Take a picture

    Sittin here thinkin bout yesterday
    And all the friends I ve had
    Never ever thought that I would change
    But as I m lookin back
    Feels like I m growin up so damn fast
    Before I know it my futures now my past
    Like...

    Mariana, que mambo

    Me apasionas, me transformas, me diluyes,
    me disuelves.
    Me acaloras, me enloqueces, me desbordas, me diviertes.
    Me trastornas y no tengo escapatoria,
    tienes el control.
    Tienes tanto pero tanto que me abrumas,
    y ese cuerpo que me vuelca la imaginación.
    Estoy loco ya de atar
    por aproximación

    Qué me has hecho Mariana,...

    Zielone szkiełko

    Stoję na słońcu łapię w palce czas - nitki babiego lata.
    Patrzę na świat przez szkło bez krat - przez dno butelki.
    Włosy rozwiane głaszczą mi twarz,
    świat jest bez końca zielony,
    człowiek na słońcu to właśnie ja -
    a może nie człowiek.

    Leżę na ziemi wdycham zapach traw - obłoki...
