  • My hands are shaking
    But I can still pour the mistake that I'm making
    And I'll pour one more
    It runs in my family, it runs in my blood
    And just like my daddy, I can't get enough
    Every last drop I say is the last
    Then I drive to the store and I fill up my glass

    Dear Sobriety
    Please come back to me
    I left you high and dry
    I'm doomed for good this time
    I swore I wouldn't be
    I'm making a fool of me
    I need you desperately
    Dear Sobriety

    Two years I gave in and I did not sway
    And I swore to my family I'd keep it that way
    Saved by the good Lord and hurt in their eyes
    But life would back splatter and I compromise
    If heartache won't kill you, you find something that will
    And it turns out this battle is only uphill

    Dear Sobriety
    Please come back to me
    I left you high and dry
    I'm doomed for good this time
    I swore I wouldn't be
    Oh but I'm making a fool of me
    I need you desperately
    Dear Sobriety

    Dear Sobriety
    Please come back to me
    I left you high and dry
    I'm doomed for good this time
    I swore I wouldn't be
    Oh but I'm making a fool of me
    I need you desperately
