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
'Cause I'm the only one you know in the world that won't be home
Ahhh, sun is blinding
I stayed up again
Oh, I'm finding
That's not the way I want my story to end
I'm safe up high,
Nothing can touch me
But why do I feel this party's over?
No pain inside
You're my protection
But how do I feel this good sober?
I don't wanna be the girl that has to fill the silence..
The quiet scares me 'cause it screams the truth
Please don't tell me that we had that conversation (I know we did)
I won't remember, save your breath 'cause what's the use?
Ahhh, the night is calling
And it whispers to me softly, "come and play"
But I, 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
But how do I feel this good sober?
Comin' down, comin' down, comin' down,
Spinnin' round, spinnin' round, spinnin' round
I’m looking for myself,
Sober
Comin' down, comin' down, comin' down,
Spinnin' round, spinnin' round, spinnin' 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
And just trying to find a friend
Oh
I'm safe up high,
Nothing can touch me (Nothing can touch me)
But why do I feel this party's over? (why do I feel this party's over?)
No pain (no) inside (no)
You're like perfection
But how do I feel this good sober? (how do I feel this good sober?)
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
But how do I feel this good sober?
How do I feel this good sober?

My sentiments exactly, although I don't choose to opiate my senses with drugs or numb my pain with alcohol. There are many, more subtle ways to run away from reality while wearing a mask so no one sees the truth beneath. Love this song, love the lyrics, and love the video even more.
