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?
[chorus] 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
Liquid courage Pouring down Sober surface Can′t be found
There′s no denial You can′t drown When nothings 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?
[chorus] 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?
[chorus] 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
