Why would I need a potion to talk to you...
Is it so that I'll have the courage to?
And talk nonsense and just talk and talk,
Until you get bored and decide to walk.

Why would I need a powder just to approach you...
Is it that so that I'll positively think you'll talk to me too?
And expect everything will work out just fine.
To trust the effect that once taken, you'll be mine.

Why would I need an herb to bind with you?
If you laugh because I laughed, it won't mean it's funny.
And if you laugh and I laughed, It might sound genuine,
But I laughed because of the smoke, not just because of the wine.

Why would I take a tablet just to dance with you?
And look foolish even if you dance with me too.
Cool or not, it's not me doing the move I make,
It was the chemicals, I wished I could hide and fake.

Please wait until I'm sober,
Wait until I think right.
But don't wait until I'm better
Because you're the reason why I'll do all this tonight.
