Bosco - Placebo

I love you more than any man

But something’s getting in the way

I do you harm because I can

For the second time today

Victims we are not of happenstance

But you’re a victim all the same

Stuck inside a circumstance

With your confusion and your blame

And when I get drunk

You take me home

And keep me safe

From harm

When I get drunk

You take me home

I ask you for another second chance

But then I drink it all away

And I get bellicose when you react

Full of frustration and dismay

I was so delicate when we began

So tender when I spoke your name

But now I’m nothing but a partisan

To my compulsion and my shame

And when I get drunk

You take me home

And keep me safe

From harm

When I get drunk

You take me home

You know, I’m grateful

I appreciate

But in fact, it’s baleful

How I suck you dry

How I suck you dry

How I suck you dry

How I suck you

How I suck you dry

How I suck you dry

How I suck you dry

I love you more than any man

But I seem to lay it all to waste

I do you harm because I can

With a joke in questionable taste

I’ve such duplicity at my command

So I keep on lying to your face

Then I run away to wonderland

And disappear without trace

And when I get drunk

You take me home

And keep me safe

From harm

When I get drunk

You take me home

You know, I’m grateful

I appreciate

But, in fact, it’s baleful

How I suck you dry

How I suck you dry

How I suck you dry

How I suck you
