Highs and Lows

Trim your bangs, let it hang, loosen up
Forget about the rough, It was yesterday
You got the shorter, stick who gives a shit
Vain love comes, Soak up the sun, Till it goes away
Feel the pulse, the ripples flawed
Reach out your hand, Till it touches land, She will find you
In Michigan born and raised, The rapid waves were easy to chase
All of my wars were way too short, And hiding under my skin

Cause once you've been high you know what its like to be low
They call it life but they just don't know

The salmon begin to swim, Even tho the tide rips through there skin
Just to find a place we all can go, To escape the bears to escape the show
Son of a gun, Who shot the one?
Sitting all alone, there ain't nothing wrong, With not standing up
Ill give you the shirt on my back, If your looking for friends
Cause a friend is what I lack, I was ok, on my own
The curtains see through the slim, I almost fell for that trick
The medicine it moves in waves, Just like the salmons in there grave

Cause once you've been high you know what its like to be low
They call it life but they just don't know
The cops are outside there getting ready to take you home
They call it life but they just don't know

As a kid I was never one to talk
Just stand there, watch, give me the chalk
Let me be, let me out of my head
And Ill show you a man who's dead
She tracked down my inspired dreams
Folded them put them underneath
The bread frame, The product of my shame
She said, Ill give you the wrong drugs
Just like uncle sam and his mobile shrug
You say you pay your taxes
But so do the masses, And no ones happy
Cause money won't buy you worth, And the bills will pile up like dirt
Until the day comes when your so behind, You start to realize

Cause once you've been high you know what its like to be low
They call it life but they just don't know
The cops are outside there getting ready to take you home
They call it life but they just don't know
Cause once you've been high you know what its like to be low
