joel jerome (folk) - next high lyrics
not many kids make it out from where i’m from
they grow up without many expectations
at some point, the weight starts to get to them
so they seek out ways to numb it all once and again
they’d start popping any pill they could get ‘hold of
then turn to the needle when push came to shove
their eyes told the story of the pain they sought to numb
the next high was the only thought on their minds
the promise of escape led them back each time
i had a way out, so i left them all behind
as the days, months and the years drifted by
i saw more shoot it up and never asked why
reaching to the dope to give them a few moments of peace
all they ever had on life was a short lease
one bright and sunny day, i found myself inside
i took a look around me and everyone was high
their eyes showed the path upon which they chose to run
the next high was the only warmth they could find
their vice got harder to sustain with the hand of time
friends and family disappeared and the clock refused to wind
how many lost to the heavy hand?
which we could never understand
beaten down by the relentless toll
they departed in body or soul
