Staind - Sober Tool Cover (Lyrics)

Staind covers Tools "Sober" in their album The Singles with lyrics:

Every shadow just behind me,
Shrouding every step I make,
Breaking every promise empty,
Pointing every finger at me
Waiting like a stalking butler
Who upon the finger rests
Murder now the path has lost me
Just because the sun has set
Judas was a fucking whistler
Nothing but the past is done
Judas mother fucking whistler
Nothing but the past is done

Why can't we not be sober?
I just want to start this over
Why can't we sleep forever?
I just want to start this over

I am just a worthless liar
I am just an imbecile
I will only complicate you
Trust in me and fall as well
I will find the center in you
I will chew it up and leave,
I will work to elevate you
Just enough to bring you down

Mother Mary was a whisper
Nothing but the past is done
Mother was a fucking whistler
Nothing but the past is done

Why can't we not be sober?
I just want to start this over
Why can't we drink forever?
I just want to start this over this time

I am just a worthless liar
I am just an imbecile
I will only complicate you
Trust in me and fall as well
I will find the center in you
I will chew it up and leave,

Trust me, Trust me, Trust me, Trust me, Trust me

Why can't we not be sober?
I just want to start this over, and
Why can't we drink forever?
I just want to start this over this time

I want what I want
I want what I want
I want what I want
I want what I want

I love the fact that he took the song and made it his own in small ways without destroying the melodic beauty of the song ... however the bleeps are obnoxious ... after going between the songs ... I like them both equally for their own reasons. No im not a douschebag since I am a TOOL fan. I respect my musical tastes as well as others ... so no need to push my buttons or attempt to belittle my opinions ... have love for the musical diversity people. hugs and what not

not bad - good voice, but the mood Tool creates in their version is unreachable

[ytubedj23]

personally i prefer this version aaron lewis has the greatest f**kin voice ever

[csderiso]

[csderiso]

art is like running out of smoke

This is by no means TOOL, obviously, but I think Aaron Lewis did a great job with this song! Maynard's voice isnt the easiest to duplicate but hell, I think they did a great job! But TOOL is definitely the band!

You know when I grow up, ...... I don't want to see these ads youtube.

HORRIBLE!!! WRONG! IT'S ALL WRONG! BLASPHEMY! A disgrace to Maynard and all his fans.
