(Intro)
(Pulsing synth bass, clean guitar pluck)
Yeah... three AM graffiti on my ceiling
Tracing patterns where your fingers used to be
We don't even fight anymore
Just static on the line, fading quietly
(Chorus)
We were HIGH, HIGH, HIGH off love
Now we're just FADED
You don't say my name, you just HAZE IT
I pour my heart in another round
But I still see your ghost hanging around
You took my trust, left me with doubt
Yeah, we were the talk of the town
Now it's just...
SILENCE AFTER THE HIGH
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) After the high...
SILENCE AFTER THE HIGH
(Verse 1)
You painted "forever" in the brightest blue
I showed you my universe, you kept yours on "Do Not Disturb"
We were neon in a blackout week
'Til you got used to the light, started looking for the quiet
Your touch turned to translation, always missing what I meant
My love was an avalanche, you were just visiting the sentiment
(Pre-Chorus)
You don't miss me, babe
You miss the drama, miss the chase
The way I knew the secret places on your face
Now you call when you need a taste
But you were never there, never there in the first place...
(Chorus)
We were HIGH, HIGH, HIGH off love
Now we're just FADED
You don't say my name, you just HAZE IT
I pour my heart in another round
But I still see your ghost hanging around
You took my trust, left me with doubt
Yeah, we were the talk of the town
Now it's just...
SILENCE AFTER THE HIGH
(Ah-ah-ah-ah) After the high...
(Post-Chorus)
Faded, faded, faded...
Silence after the high... (Oh-oh-oh)
Faded, faded, faded...
Was it all a lie?
(Ooh-ooh) Just a beautiful lie...
(Verse 2)
Said I was "complicated," too much to hold
You had one foot out the door, blamed it on the cold
I made excuses, wore your storms like a coat
Learned the forecast of your moods by the notes you didn't write
Now you post your "peace" – tell me, do you feel it?
Or is it just the filter making everything look brighter?
I know that lonely eats at you when the screen light's gone
