I really don't know what I'm doing hereI really think I should've gone to bed tonight but..."Just one drinkAnd there're some people to meet youI think that you'll like themI have to say we doAnd i promise in less than than an hour we will honestly go...Now why don't I just get you anotherWhile you just say hello... "Yeah just say hello...So I'm clutching it tightAnother glass in my handAnd my mouth and the smilesMoving up as I stand upToo close and too wideAnd the smiles are too brightAnd I breathe in too deepAnd my head's getting lightBut the air is getting heavier and it's closerAnd I'm starting to swayAnd the hands all on my shoulders don't have namesAnd they won't go awaySo here I goHere I go again...Falling into strangersAnd it's only just elevenAnd I'm staring like a childUntil someone slips me heavenAnd I take it on my kneesJust like a thousand times beforeAnd I get transfixedThat fixedAnd I'm just looking at the floorJust looking at the floorYeah i look at the floor...And I'm starting to laughLike an animal in painAnd I've got blood on my handsAnd I've got hands in my brainAnd the first short retchLeaves me gasping for moreAnd I stagger over screamingOn my way to the floorAnd I'm back on my backWith the lights and the lies in my eyesAnd the colour and the music's too loudAnd my head's all the wrong sizeSo here I goHere I go again...Yeah I laugh and I jumpAnd I sing and I laughAnd I dance and I laughAnd I laugh and I laughAnd I can't seem to thinkWhere this isWho I amWhy I'm keeping this goingKeep pouring it outKeep pouring it downKeeping it goingKeep pouring it downAnd the way the rain comes down hard...That's the way I feel inside...I can't take it anymoreThis it I've becomeThis is it like I getWhen my life's going numbI just keep moving my mouthI just keep moving my feetI say I'm loving you to deathLike I'm losing my breathAnd all the smiles that I wearAnd all the games that I playAnd all the drinks that I mixAnd I drink until I'm sickAnd all the faces I makeAnd all the shapes that I throwAnd alll the people I meetAnd all the words that I knowMakes me sick to the heartOh I feel so tired...And the way the rain comes down hard...That's how I feel inside...
