Over the Influence

Everything started with instinct

My heart and my body felt in sync

Figured out what had been missing, right then and there, yeah

Tried to grow up in a hurry

Caught in the sound and the fury

That's when it starts to get blurry, yeah, yeah, hmm

The doctor wrote me my prescription

Had a taste, I was addicted

Ate the candy that was given to me, bittersweet

Walked to the beat of my heart

Got me a shot with the stars

Now I can't help wishin' for a little more space

Followed the path that I saw

I'd pay whatever the cost

Now the only thing I can afford is a little more

Spent my whole life with somebody

Wasted a whole lot of money

Anything not to be lonely, oh-oh

Mama's entertainer, daddy's stranger in the orbit

Got a lot of baggage, always feeling like a tourist

Surfing though cyberspace debating what's important

Walked to the beat of my heart

Got me a shot with the stars

Now the only thing I'm wishin' for (a little more space)

Followed the path that I saw

I'd pay whatever the cost

Now the only thing I can afford is a little more
