Got High - Kristoff Krane

up dud…

I coulda got down but instead I got high

Chasin' the dragonflies

Now

My angel cries out loud

Falling forward face first in a mud puddle

Reflecting what’s inside

Sun above me the the whole time

Life’s a puzzle-

That’s a lie

It’s a test

I hope you don’t pass out

It started with a little line and grew into a mound

He crushed a couple pills

And reassured me with a big smile

Handin' me the straw

Promised me I’d climb over the hill

But never mentioned nothin' bout the hole

You drown in underground

I found myself minutes later at the kitchen sink

On an elevator sick

Praying for the missing link

But before I had the time to stop and think

The pills already hit my brain and

Damn, I was feelin' great

Better than I ever felt

Pleasure is a leather belt

Never mind the path to heaven winds

Directly through Hell

I finally feel like I no longer need the help

Stronger than I ever felt

(Stronger than I ever felt)

Stomach tied in knots

I started nodding off

All my close friends gathered round and tried to pry and prod

I wondered if I’m wrong

Feeling like I lied to God

Now their tryin' to call my mom

Maybe it’s time to stop

Life is too short for

Long nights and sleepy afternoons

Plus I gotta little one at home

Who wants his Daddy back

He’s learnin' how to walk

But hopefully not

In his Daddy’s shoes

In his Daddy’s tracks

They never told me about the power

Of the drug

Just how to do it, circle of influence was corrupt

They showed me how to fuck

Because nobody ever showed them how to make love

(make love)

Now that I’m done there’s a hole

I feel I can’t fill

It’s as if my whole life’s story

Was crushed up in that pill

The first one probably should have been the last

Or never been the first

That lead to smoking Fentanyl patches

It didn’t sink in

Until I had to bury him

Walkin' home from his grave with both eyes starin' in

(staring in)

He was gonna marry her

(marry her)

And now she’s doing it again.
