The high is always the pain and the pain is always the high.


Everything is great then my whole world crashes
I tried to end my life because of everything it lacks
Don't play with me cause you're playing with ashes

The pills don't help, my brain still flashes
It seems things still slip through the cracks
Everything is great then my whole world crashes

I keep my happiness in stashes
And it only emerges in tiny packs
Don't play with me cause you're playing with ashes

Tragic thoughts, blissful thoughts, everything mashes
And slow burning demise is the punch it packs
Everything is great then my whole world crashes

Insanity beckons with it's long, dark lashes
And it pricks my skin red, turns my world to shades of blacks
Don't play with me cause you're playing with ashes

Any hope I have of healing smashes
Even after everything, my head still attacks
Everything is great then my whole world crashes
Don't play with me cause you're playing with ashes
