L.U.I. - Life Under the Influence

I'm falling away from hope again Something I know all too well And I fear I might have broken A promise I made to myself Seems I can hang over the edge And keep my Feet down on the floor And I know I can't let you in - 'cause my hand's against the door I can't love you when I'm sober, with nowhere to place the blame And when the light shines through the window, a dirty inside still remains I can't love you when I'm sober, when you're lying next to me But something's got you holdin' on Holdin' on Holdin' on to me There's not a Time that I've been perfect - and "not a time that you were wrong" If I can't feel today, how should I - Live tomorrow (live tomorrow) This is the only way, the world seen Through a bottle And I see behind that pretty face, you don't know You don't know me I can't love you when I'm sober, with nowhere to place the blame And when the light shines through the window, a dirty inside still remains I can't love you when I'm sober, when you're lying next to me But something's got you holdin' on Holdin' on Holdin' on to me Holdin' on... To somethin' that'll never be - (to somethin' that'll never) Life under the influence, is all I know, and all I see Life under the influence, is takin' over me - Life under the influence, is all I know and all I see And I'm drowning in the water, cause The hook is in too deep (in too deep) And I can't I can't love you when I'm sober, with nowhere to place the blame And when the light shines through the window, a dirty inside still remains I can't love you when I'm sober, when you're lying next to me But something's got you holdin' on Holdin' on Holdin' on to me I can't love you when I'm sober, with nowhere to place the blame And when the light shines through the window, a dirty inside still remains I can't love you when I'm sober, when you're lying next to me But something's got you holdin' on Holdin' on Holdin' on to me
