Bosco (MTV Unplugged) Placebo

This is actually quite a special moment for us because we are going to play a song we haven't played live before. So you fine people, you fine people are going to be the very first in the entire world to hear Placebo play this song. And we're very very happy to have this opportunity to play it. Thanks

[Verse 1]
I love you more than any man, but something's getting in the way
I do you harm because I can for the second time today
Victims we are not of happenstance, but you're a victim all the same
Stuck inside a circumstance with your confusion and your blame

[Chorus]
And when I get drunk, you take me home and keep me safe from harm
When I get drunk, you take me home

[Verse 2]
I ask you for another second chance, but then I drink it all away
And I get bellicose when you react, full of frustration and dismay
I was so delicate when we began, so tender when I spoke your name
But now I'm nothing but a partisan to my compulsion and my shame

[Chorus 2]
And when I get drunk, you take me home and keep me safe from harm
When I get drunk, you take me home
You know, I'm grateful, I appreciate
But in fact, it's baleful how I suck you dry
How I suck you dry
How I suck you dry
How I suck you
How I suck you dry
How I suck you dry
How I suck you dry
