You Make Me High Lyrics

Well I don't know just what I'm here for
I want more than words can describe
I've been deprived
Can you believe it
My whole world well its fallin' apart
well it falls, still it falls, well it falls apart around me

i hope you can add this to the site, amazing song..thanks!

And you pick me back up, oh said you pickin' back up
oh you gonna pick me back up and you get a' me high
Said at you pick me back up, oh said you pickin' back up
oh you gonna pick me back up and you get a' me high

Cuz' I'm drinkin' all of the tears you cry
And I don't wish, to know my ending, mmmmm'
I just say I wanna know when I begun
I wanna know when I begun
I wanna know where it started from
where it all had started from

Because I feel like I am spinning,
I feel like I'm spinning
Well I feel just like I'm spinning I'm spinning around
oh oh oh oh
said I feel like I am spinning
all around this summer
and the winter comes and another storm
it falls, well it falls, said it falls apart around me

And you pick me back up, oh said you pickin' back up
oh you gonna pick me back up and you get a' me high
Oh my, my, my
Said you pick me back up, oh said you pick me back up
oh you gonna pick me back up and you get a' me high
Said I'm drinkin all of the tears you cry
breathing every breath that you sigh

I am
I'm breathing all of the tears that you cry, that you cry
all the tears that you cry, every breath that you sigh

Well I don't know just what I'm here for 
I want more than words can describe 
I've been deprived 
Can you believe it 
My whole world well its fallin' apart 
well it falls, still it falls, well it falls apart around me

i hope you can add this to the site, amazing song..thanks!

And you pick me back up, oh said you pickin' back up 
oh you gonna pick me back up and you get a' me high 
Said at you pick me back up, oh said you pickin' back up 
oh you gonna pick me back up and you get a' me high

Cuz' I'm drinkin' all of the tears you cry 
And I don't wish, to know my ending, mmmmm' 
I just say I wanna know when I begun 
I wanna know when I begun 
I wanna know where it started from 
where it all had started from

Because I feel like I am spinning, 
I feel like I'm spinning 
Well I feel just like I'm spinning I'm spinning around 
oh oh oh oh 
said I feel like I am spinning 
all around this summer 
and the winter comes and another storm 
it falls, well it falls, said it falls apart around me

And you pick me back up, oh said you pickin' back up 
oh you gonna pick me back up and you get a' me high 
Oh my, my, my 
Said you pick me back up, oh said you pick me back up 
oh you gonna pick me back up and you get a' me high 
Said I'm drinkin all of the tears you cry 
breathing every breath that you sigh

I am 
I'm breathing all of the tears that you cry, that you cry 
all the tears that you cry, every breath that you sigh

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

jason has said in the past that this is one of the first songs he ever wrote about the first "real" girlfriend he ever had an i think it totally captures that intensity of that first love when you're high school and you're at that age where NO ONE understands you and then you find that one other person that seems to...and it just...you want to be everything for them. That's what this song says to me.
