Only When You're High

[Verse 1] Back table, last call, you drift back in, I fall. Eyes too bright for this hour, laughter cuts through the dark. Every word tastes like lightning, every touch burns slow, You talk like the world’s gone mad, yet, I still want the show. [Pre-Chorus] There’s a fever in your stare, in the night, a storm, only I seem to see. [Chorus] ‘Cause you’re only fun when you’re high, when the night’s too sweet to deny. Every line you spin feels golden, white lies laid in a row, unspoken... And though I know it’s only time, I keep sipping from your shine. You’re only fun when you’re high. [Verse 2] Your whole damn personality's, in a bag, in a pocket, laid out for me. You’re a ghost in the daylight, but at midnight you brag. Tracing angels in the dust, you sell me heaven, and I trust And I keep falling for the boy who only shows up when he's high. [Bridge] (soft / raw) I know this version of you won’t stay, He's just a ghost. powder, dust and delusion... But I love him more than I should admit, and I hate the crash when he forgets. *Instrumental - 2 bars* [Final Chorus / Outro] ‘Cause you’re only fun when you’re high, when the night’s too sweet to deny. Every line you spin feels golden, white lies laid in a row, unspoken. And though I know it’s only time, I keep sipping your shine. You’re only fun when you’re high - You’re the fire, I’m the wire, the hit and the good time. You’re only fun when you’re high… and God help me, so am I. … So am I.
