“You're gone and I got to stay high All the time to keep you off my mind, ooh ooh High all the time to keep you off my mind, ooh ooh Spend my days locked in a haze Trying to forget you babe, I fall back down Gotta stay high all my life to forget I'm missing you Pick up daddies at the playground How I spend my day time Loosen up the frown, make them feel alive I make it fast and greasy I know my way too easy You're gone and I got to stay high All the time to keep you off my mind, ooh ooh High all the time to keep you off my mind, ooh ooh Spend my days locked in a haze, Tryin' to forget you babe, I fall back down Got to stay high all my life to forget I'm missing you Staying in my play pretend Where the fun ain't got no end Oh, can't go home alone again Need someone to numb the pain Oh, staying in my play pretend Where the fun ain't got no end Oh oh can't go home alone again Need someone to numb the pain”
