High

So who are you

Where's the man who used to open doors

And hold me till I fell asleep

And where is he

He's been silent for a while

Has he been swallowed down with the pills and lies

Too many times you've been gone too many days

I used to think that love meant I'd always stay

But it's time for me to go

It's time for us to say goodbye

The bottle always wins

It's so hard when you realize

The promises are gone

And I've tried everything there is to try

But my love's not enough

To keep you high

Fifth birthday

She wondered where her daddy was

And the pain she felt

She knew it all too well

You said you'd change

That this would be the real last time

You'd ever let us down

Same old storyline

The scars you left will never go away

I used to think that love meant I'd always stay

But it's time for me to go

It's time for us to say goodbye

The bottle always wins

It's so hard when you realize

It's time for me to go

It's time for us to say goodbye

I hope someday you'll find

A better way to live this life

The promises are gone

And I've tried everything there is to try

But my love's not enough

No my love's not enough

To keep you high
