D-DU-UDU
What  a performance tonight
Should  I react or turn off the light?
 Looks like you're picking  a fight
 In a blurring  of wrong and right
But  how your mood changes
 You're a devil,  now an angel
 Suddenly subtle  and solemn and silent
 As a monk
 You only  tell me you love  me
 When you're drunk
 It's better than nothing,  I suppose
 Some doors have opened,  others closed
 But I couldn't see  you exposed
 To the horrors  behind some of those
Somebody  said, Listen,
 Don't you know  what you're missing?
 You should be kissing  him instead of dissing  him like
 
 punk
 But you only  tell me you love
 Me when you're drunk
 You only  tell me you love  me
 When you're drunk
All  of my friends  keep asking me
"Why?  Oh, why
 Do you not say goodbye?
 If you don't even try
 You'll be sunk"
 'Cause you only tell me you
 Love me when you're drunk
 What's the meaning
 When you speak with so much feeling?
 Is it over when you're sober?
 Is it junk?
 You only tell me you love me
 When you're drunk
 You only tell me you love me
 When you're drunk
