Influence

Do I want this?

Liquid courage pouring down
Sober surface hits the ground
The masquerade has started now
And you have faded into the crowd

How do you know? How do you know
Just who your friends are?
How do you know
When you've gone too far to get high again?

You always feel so alone
The real you is never shown
Whose influence
Whose influence are you under?

So much pressure to fit in
You never know where to begin
Whose influence?
Whose influence are you under now?

Liquid courage pouring down
Sober surface can't be found
There's no denial you can drown
But nothing's final so turn around

How do you know? How do you know
Just who your friends are?
How do you know
When you've gone too far to get high again?

You always feel so alone
The real you is never shown
Whose influence
Whose influence are you under now?

So much pressure to fit in
You never know where to begin
Whose influence
Whose influence are you under now?

I want this, do I want this?
I want this, I want this
Do I want this? Do I want this?
I want this, I want this
Do I want this?

How do you know? How do you know
Just who your friends are?
How do you know
When you've gone too far?

You always feel so alone
The real you is never shown
Whose influence?
Whose influence are you under now?

So much pressure to fit in
You never know where to begin
Whose influence?
Whose influence are you under now?

Whose influence?
Whose influence?
Whose influence are you under now?
