"Sober"

"Sober" is a currently popular song by singer, Pink (Left).

I like her alot. I enjoy her music and I've seen her in interviews. She's coming off a recent divorce and her newest music is pretty raw. I'm really diggin it.

It took me a while to really grab the lyrics in this song. Once I did, though, I immediately equated it to my eating disorder and how I use it to stay "high", ie: disconnected from myself/my feelings.

SOBER

I don't wanna be the girl who laughs the loudest

Or the girl who never wants to be alone

I don't wanna be that call at 4 o'clock in the morning

'Cos I'm the only one you know in the world that won't be home

~

Aahh the sun is blinding

I stayed up again

Oohh, I am finding

That's not the way

I want my story to end

~

I don't wanna be the girl who has to fill the silence

Cryin scares me cause it screams the truth

Please don't tell me that we had that conversation

I won't remember, save your breath,

'cos what's the use?

~

Aahh, the night is calling

And it whispers to me softly come and play

Aahh, I am falling

And If I let myself go

I'm the only one to blame

~

I'm safe

Up high

Nothing can touch me

But why do I feel this party's over?

No pain

Inside

You're like perfection

How do I feel this good sober?

~

I'm coming down, coming down, coming down

Spinning 'round, spinning 'round, spinning 'round

Looking for myself, Sober

~

When it's good, then it's good, it's so good till it goes bad

Till you're trying to find the you that you once had

I have heard myself cry, never again

Broken down in agony just tryna find a friend

~

I'm safe

Up high

Nothing can touch me

But why do I feel this party's over?

No pain

Inside

You're like perfection

How do I feel this good sober

Will I ever feel this good sober?

Tell me, No no no no no pain

How do i feel this good sober?
