Sober Lyrics

Now that I am sober
I take back what I said
I'm sittin' with this love hangover
And boy, it's hurtin' my head
It's the middle of October
And we just came to an end
I'm just sorry that there ain't no time left
You and I, we're over
Me and you are done
When I wanted to be closer
You just wanted to run
Though I know it's no one's fault
If I've learned anything at all
With us, no matter how I add it up, uh
One plus one is none

You've been on my mind for a while now
Tryna get you off 'cause this ain't right now
You said it was a vibe for the time being
It was nothing more, but I just couldn't see it
This is not a song for the whole world
Felt like it could've been us against the whole world
Baby, you were mine and I was your girl
Whatever happened to the time that we spent

Sober
I take back what I said
I'm sittin' with this love hangover
And boy, it's hurtin' my head
It's the middle of October
And we just came to an end
I'm just sorry that there ain't no time left
You and I, we're over
Me and you are done
When I wanted to be closer
You just wanted to run
Though I know it's no one's fault
If I've learned anything at all
With us, no matter how I add it up
One plus one is none

I've been at this party for some time now
Sippin' on Bacardi 'til it runs out
You are in the corner with your head down
I don't even wanna know what that's about
'Cause you're the one that's always gettin' too wasted
And I'm the one that's never that intoxicated
Tonight I'm in my feelings, oh, I'm faded
But I don't wanna think about the complicated
Oh, your love got me feeling like I can't get up
Wishing for it but it never lasts
I thought we'd be together, oh, it ended so fast

Now that I am sober
I take back what I said (I take it back, I take it back)
I'm sittin' with this love hangover
And boy, it's hurtin' my head
It's the middle of October (it's the middle of October, huh)
But we just came to an end
I'm just sorry that there ain't no time left
'Cause you and I, we're over
Me and you are done
'Cause when I wanted to be closer (nah)
You just wanted to run
Though I know it's no one's fault
If I've learned anything at all
With us, no matter how I add it up, huh
One plus one is none

No matter how I add it up
I just keep gettin' none

What is the Meaning of Sober?

This poignant track explores the aftermath of a failed relationship, with the protagonist reflecting on her emotions from a sober perspective. The lyrics express regret and confusion as she grapples with the remnants of love that lingers even after parting ways. The repeated phrase 'one plus one is none' encapsulates her realization that despite their efforts, they couldn't make their relationship work. The song also highlights the contrast between her desire for closeness and his preference for distance, ultimately leading to their separation. Furthermore, it underscores how excessive partying and avoidance can exacerbate emotional pain instead of providing solace. Overall, it's a heartfelt narrative about self-awareness, acceptance, and personal growth following heartbreak.
