Half as High Lyrics by The Devil Makes Three

Spirits

2025

[Verse 1]
\nThey say it's getting harder
\nHarder every day
\nMore that we got to make now
\nIt's more than we got to pay
\nSomething here ain't as it seems
\nHow come we're dreaming someone else's dreams?
\nSay the grass is greener but it ain't that green
\nHere come the firefighters with the gasoline
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nHow come we gotta take a bigger hit
\nJust to get half as high?
\nHow come we gotta take a bigger hit
\nJust to get half as high?
\nWell, I don't know what we've been sold
\nBut I think I heard this story long time ago
\nHow come we gotta take a bigger hit
\nJust to get half as high?
\n
\n[Verse 2]
\nGame is tooth for a tooth now
\nBut I say an eye for an eye
\nAnd I keep one eye open
\nFor everything passing by
\nThey say they know not what they do
\nBut I think they do what I'm telling you
\nChange the range and the numbers too
\nGotta get higher than we used to do
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nWell, how come we gotta take a bigger hit
\nJust to get half as high?
\nHow come we gotta take a bigger hit
\nJust to get half as high?
\nWell, I don't know what we've been sold
\nBut I think I heard this story long time ago
\nHow come we gotta take a bigger hit
\nJust to get half as high?
\n
\n[Bridge]
\nBetter switch gears just for fear
\nOf everything breaking down
\nThey say heavy is the head that wears the crown
\nSeventeen and ninety-three
\nDid you hear what happend to old Louis?
\nKeep on pushing, maybe you'll see
\nGive my regards to the monarchy
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nWell, how come we gotta take a bigger hit
\nJust to get half as high?
\nHow come we gotta take a bigger hit
\nJust to get half as high?
\nWell, I don't know what we've been sold
\nBut I think I heard this story long time ago
\nHow come we gotta take a bigger hit
\nJust to get half as high?\n\n
