You Get High
You were spinning yarn and I was sweetest sixteen
And you drove your mother's car to pick me up at 8:15
But I was always running late
And this was just like any other day
When you caught my eye, you were just twenty-three
But you left me cold and crying for the girl of your teenage dreams
All is fair in love and war
My broken heart possessed your love no more
You get high
While everyone around you is getting low
You get high
While everyone around you is getting low
I was walking empty streets in the town where we were made
With my heart still incomplete and I knew you felt the same
I was still just running scared
Every door I opened led to nowhere
You get high
While everyone around you is getting low
You get high
While everyone around you is getting low
And Steven Street was ours but you kept me far away
When I could not entertain you, you would show your other face
Suffering was all you did
When the morning light came streaming in
You get high
While everyone around you is getting low
You get high
While everyone around you is getting low
Everyone around you is getting low
(Everyone around you is getting low)
Everyone around you is getting low
(Everyone around you is getting low)
Everyone around you is getting low
(Everyone around you is getting low)
