Just to get High

Location

I remember the things i would do just to get high.
A trade here, a borrow here, an i owe you one to its for something important.
Just to get high.
Meeting strangers, sex for drugs, drugs for sex.
Just to get high.
Selling my mothers ring, stealing from my fathers college fund for me.
Just to get high.
Shaking, sweating, sleepless nights.
Just to get high.
Uplifting, downgrading.
Just to get high.
A poke, a prick, a strap.
Just to get high.
Liquid, crystals, powder, crunch.
Just to get high
Blackouts, Depression, sick.
Just to get high
Hospital, emergency, bright lights.
Just to get high
Roses, tears, sadness, paid.
Just to get high
17, casket, pain.
Just to get high
Dirt, 6 foot, gone.
Just to get high
Life, drugs, sex, money, drugs.
Just to get high
Death
Just to get high
All i wanted was that beautiful life, but i threw it all away...
Just to get High
