"GOT ME BY ZAROONI" FULL LYRICS
"He's come from a dark place, he's not gonna stop
It's got into my head, call the cops
Am I talking to myself Or is it just another day instead
It's 12pm, it's still very dark
It's not going to bed, the talk was no help
Someone please call a friend I might end up in hell
Oh Lord, at least there is a tomorrow
I'll be okay, cause I know that you got me
I know that you got me
Still wide awake, it's right next to me we're talking,
again, he says he's my friend, Gave a number to a place
Don't need to worry about this mess again,
he says he's my friend or take me instead
A knock on the door, please come in
Take this away, or take me instead
It's gonna be a long night still might end up in hell
I pray you will show me the way Today will do as you say
Will do as you say
You got me, I'll see you again 2x
My only friend"
