Just to Get High

Lyrics

[Verse 1] He was my best friend Well, I tried to help him But he traded everything for suffering And found himself alone I watched the lying turn into hiding With scars on both his lips, his fingertips were melted to the bone [Pre-Chorus] But I can still remember what his face looked like When I found him in an alley in the middle of the night Tell me what you know, tell me what you gone and done now [Chorus] Tell me what you know, tell me what you gone and done now A gun would do the trick, get it over with You're better off To take all you've got and burn it on the spot To get high-igh, -igh, -igh (High-igh, -igh, -igh) [Verse 2] Three days no sleeping Well, he gave up eating He sold his mother's rings, she said nothing And pretended not to know He started stealing, to supply the feeling Found out he pulled a knife, on someone's wife And held it to her throat [Pre-Chorus] But I can still remember what his face looked like When I found him in an alley in the middle of the night Tell me what you know, tell me what you gone and done now [Chorus] Tell me what you know, tell me what you gone and done now A gun would do the trick, get it over with You're better off To take all you've got and burn it on the spot To get high (High) Tell me what you did, where you gone and hid? Show me is what you really want, watching what you've got Slowly Circling the drain, throw it all away Just to get high (High) High-igh, -igh, oh [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] (High-igh-igh-igh, high-igh-igh-igh) High (High-igh-igh-igh, high-igh-igh-igh) High Tell me what you know, tell me what you gone and done now [Chorus] Tell me what you know, tell me what you gone and done now A gun would do the trick, get it over with You're better off To take all you've got and burn it on the spot Just to get high-igh, -igh, -igh (High-igh, -igh, -igh) Tell me what did, where you gone and hid? Show me is what you really want, watching what you've got Slowly Circling the drain, throw it all away Just to get high-igh, -igh, -igh, -igh Just to get high-igh, -igh, -igh, -igh Circling the drain, throw it all away Just to get high-igh, -igh, -igh, -igh
