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
A gun would 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 (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
A gun would 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, it's what you really want, was it what you got?
Slowly, circlin' the drain, throw it all away
Just to get high (high)
High, oooh

(High, high)
High
(High, high)
High

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
A gun would 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
Show me what you did, where you gone and hid?
Show me, it's what you really want, was it what you got?
Slowly, circlin' the drain, throw it all away
Just to get high
Just to get high
Circlin' the drain, throw it all away
Just to get high
This song is from the album "Dark Horse".
