Just To Get High Lyrics

He was my best friend, 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
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 Tell me what you know Tell me what you gone and done now
Gonna do the trick, get it over with You're better off to take all that You've got and burn it on the spot Just to get high
Three days no sleeping, 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
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 Tell me what you know Tell me what you gone and done now
Gonna do the trick, get it over with You're better off to take all that You've got and burn it on the spot Just to get high
Tell me what you did, where you gone and hid? Show me what you really want, was it what you got? Slowly circle in the drain, throw it all away Just to get high, high, high, oh
Tell me what you know Tell me what you gone and done now Tell me what you know Tell me what you gone and done now
Gonna do the trick, get it over with You're better off to take all that You've got and burn it on the spot Just to get high
Tell me what did, where you gone and hid? Show me what you really want, was it what you got? Slowly circle in the drain, throw it all away Just to get high, just to get high Circle in the drain, throw it all away Just to get high
