Well I spent my time
Thinkin' about
The ups and downs
And the ins and outs of love

Do I slave in pain
Rack my brains
Sayin' yes boss no boss
To anything no way

Do ya really think that ya need me
Do ya really think I'll be there

When ya slide across the edge of a knife into suicide
Under the influence
Caught by the stare of an eye
You'll be hypnotized
Under the influence

Whoa, backbone skater on a knee bone slide
Private exhibition in the public eye, oh, yeah

You sell your soul for somethin' new
Success the addiction one taste will do

Do ya really think that ya need me
Do ya really think I'll be there

When ya slide across the edge of a knife into suicide
Under the influence
Caught by the stare of an eye
You'll be hypnotized
Under the influence

When ya slide across the edge of a knife into suicide
Under the influence
Caught by the stare of an eye
You'll be hypnotized
Under the influence
