He was my best friend, I tried to help him   But he traded everything for suffering   And found himself alone      I watched the lying, turn into hiding   With scars on both his lips, his fingertips   Were melted to the bone      But I can still remember   What his face looked like   When I found him in an alley   In the middle of the night      Tell me what you know   Tell me what you gone and done now   Tell me what you know   Tell me what you gone and done now      Gonna do the trick, get it over with   You're better off to take all that   You've got and burn it on the spot   Just to get high      Three days no sleeping, he gave up eating   He sold his mother's rings, she said nothing   And pretended not to know      He started stealing to supply the feeling   Found out he pulled a knife on someone's wife   And held it to her throat      But I can still remember   What his face looked like   When I found him in an alley   In the middle of the night      Tell me what you know   Tell me what you gone and done now   Tell me what you know   Tell me what you gone and done now      Gonna do the trick, get it over with   You're better off to take all that   You've got and burn it on the spot   Just to get high      Tell me what you did, where you gone and hid?   Show me what you really want, was it what you got?   Slowly circle in the drain, throw it all away   Just to get high, high, high, oh      Tell me what you know   Tell me what you gone and done now   Tell me what you know   Tell me what you gone and done now      Gonna do the trick, get it over with   You're better off to take all that   You've got and burn it on the spot   Just to get high      Tell me what did, where you gone and hid?   Show me what you really want, was it what you got?   Slowly circle in the drain, throw it all away   Just to get high, just to get high   Circle in the drain, throw it all away   Just to get high
