Sober

"Sober" is a reflective ballad inspired by Bad Wolves vocalist Tommy Vext's own battle with alcoholism. It tells the story of a relationship deeply affected by the cycle of alcohol and drug abuse, but not giving up on the addict who is trying to better themselves. "This song was a unique opportunity to talk about addiction not only from the perspective of the addict but also from the perspective of their loved ones," Vext said of "Sober." "The message is very different from traditional songs that seem to always perpetuate a mentality of self victimization, which is exactly the kind of misguided thinking that perpetuates the mental obsessive side of alcoholism and addiction. In the end, the moral of the story is about holding on to not giving up on ourselves or the people who are trying -- who are really, really trying to make and better themselves."

The song's music video opens with a voiceover describing how alcoholism destroys lives without discriminating between sex, race, gender identity or religion. The action turns to an addiction recovery meeting, in which a series of addicts, including Tommy Vext, share their stories.

Bad Wolves released a second video for the song. It includes footage from the movie Sno Babies about two college-bound best friends who battle with opiate addiction. The visual's release coincided with the launch of the Wolfpack Recovery charity campaign. The initiative benefits Rock to Recovery, which uses music therapy to help those battling addiction, eating disorders and mental health issues.
