The Magnetic Fields – Too Drunk To Dream Lyrics

  • by
Read Time:1 Minute, 21 Second

Sober, life is a prison
Shitfaced, it is a blessing
Sober, nobody wants you
Shitfaced, theyre all undressing

Oh, sober, its ever darker
Shitfaced, the moon is nearer
Sober, youre old and ugly
Shitfaced, who needs a mirror?

Oh sober, youre a Cro-Magnon
Shitfaced, youre 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 Ill never get to sleep
I gotta drink wine not to pine for you
And God knows that aint cheap

I know you think Im insane
I know its not appealing
But till Im feeling no pain
Guess what Ill be feeling

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 fried to cry
Or Ill 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?
Its you, you heartless bastard
Youre my one and only

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 Ill never get to sleep
I gotta drink wine not to pine for you
And God knows that aint cheap
And God knows that aint cheap
