Too Drunk to Dream

Sober, life is a prison Shitfaced, it's a blessing Sober, nobody wants you Shitfaced, they're all undressed Sober, it's ever darker Shitfaced, the moon is nearer Sober, you're old and ugly Shitfaced, who needs a mirror? Sober, you're a cromagnon Shitfaced, you're very clever Sober, you never should be Shitfaced, now and forever! I gotta get too drunk to dream 'Cause dreaming only makes me blue I gotta get too drunk to dream Because I only dream of you I gotta get too pissed to miss you Or I'll never get to sleep I gotta drink wine not to pine for you And God knows that ain't cheap I know you think I'm insane I know it's not appealing But till I'm feeling no pain Guess what I'll be feeling? I gotta get too fried to cry Or I'll be crying all night long I gotta get too high to sigh Oh my God, where did I go wrong? So why do I get plastered? And why am I so lonely? It's you, you heartless bastard You're my one and only! I gotta get too pissed to miss you Or I'll never get to sleep I gotta drink wine not to pine for you And God knows that ain't cheap! --- Too Drunk to Dream - Magnetic Fields
