[Lyric] Getting Well With Betty Butrin (Zack Tharp)

[Verse 1]
And I can’t speak
And I can’t breathe
And I can’t think
So just leave me be

[Chorus]
Because I’m too far gone
I’m so far gone
I’ll just sit and watch the night fade into the searing morning light
Just leave me be, but please don’t leave
Because I need you here, I need you next to me
When I calm down
When I calm down

[Verse 2]
I’ll spend my nights wasting away with you
Getting close to the chest and suck down this wretched witch’s brew
‘Cause without these drugs I’m a mess beyond repair
And with these drugs I don’t see how much better I’ll fare
[Chorus]
So leave me be, but please don’t leave
Because I need you here, I need you next to me
When I calm down

[Bridge]
In the sky, on this drunken night
As we sit and contemplate the stars and the satellites
And we sing these songs, how we love such stupid songs
And you sing to me
And for once I am happy

[Chorus]
But I’m too far gone
I’m so far gone
I’ll just sit and watch the night fade into the searing morning light
Just leave me be, but please don’t leave
Because I need you here, I need you next to me
When I calm down
