HIGH WITHOUT YOU

Intro – airy, echoing]

Yeahhh…

Ooooh-woah, woah…

Floatin’ again…

Lost in the clouds, but you still on my mind…

⸻

Roll it up, light it slow, let the feelings pour in,

Every hit take me back to the nights I was yours in.

Purple dreams on the countertop,

But the way you used to love me hit harder than the strongest drop.

I been driftin’ through the city lights,

New girls come around but they never hit the same height.

I been searchin’ for your voice in the background,

Every time I’m high, I swear I hear that same sound.

Late nights, bad vibes, I been tryna shake it,

Heart ache, long flights, tryna recreate it.

But you were somethin’ that the smoke can’t replace,

Now I’m chasin’ shadows of you I can’t face…

⸻

––– TRANSITION 1 (Beat melts, reverbs stretch out) –––

(Voices swirling)

You were my, you were my…

Can’t feel nothin’ without ya…

Beat drops back in—deeper, darker…

⸻

I get high… but I still miss you, baby,

Took my heart… now the nights feel crazy.

Smoke in my lungs but it ain’t enough

To push your memory off of me.

I get high… tryna feel that love again,

But your touch got me trapped where I’ve already been.

No matter what I do, no matter what I take—

I can’t get higher than you, no way.

⸻

Told myself I’m okay, told myself I’d move on,

But I still reach for your name when I’m scrollin’ my phone.

I still hear you in the rhythm of the rain at dawn,

And I still smell your perfume every time I’m gone.

New smoke, new strains, but the high ain’t hittin’,

You the one I think about every time I’m lifted.

Wish I could rewind to the days we were twisted—

Bodies on the floor, feelin’ spiritually gifted.

I been riding through the midnight lost,

Tryna fill the void but I can’t pay that cost.

Love so loud, now the silence feels wrong,

Wish you were here in my arms where you belong.

⸻

––– TRANSITION 2 (Vocal filter, slow-down effect) –––

(Beat dissolves into reverb)

Oohhh, you know, you know…

(Soft hums, chopped vocals)

Miss you, miss you… miss you in my zone…

Beat comes back sharper, more urgent.

⸻

Why’d you leave me in the cold like that?

Why’d you take my soul like that?

Every time I close my eyes,

I see you standin’ in the smoke…

Girl, you know I’d take you back,

Even if it broke me bad.

You the only high I ever had

That never let me go…

⸻

I get high… but I still miss you, baby,

Took my heart… now the nights feel crazy.

Smoke in my lungs but it ain’t enough

To push your memory off of me.

I get high… tryna feel that love again,

But your touch got me trapped where I’ve already been.

No matter what I do, no matter what I take—

I can’t get higher than you, no way.

⸻

Yeah…

Still missin’ you… still missin’ you…

High without you…

But it ain’t the same, no, no…

Fade away…
