Mr. Highlife, a sad goodbye, you put your hardest battle in the limelight You had a love, you had a child, but it still couldn't keep you from the demon's smile How were you ever going to know, that going back up wasn't gonna bring you back somewhere When did you lose control, turning your punk rock dreams into nightmares Mr. Highlife, a sad goodbye, you put your hardest battle in the limelight You had a love, you had a child, but it still couldn't keep you from the demon's smile How were you ever going to know that going back up wasn't gonna bring you back somewhere When did you lose control, turning your punk rock dreams into nightmares Dark rings around your eyes, secrets behind your lips I knew that something wasn't right, but how could I interfere with it How were you ever going to know that going back up wasn't going to bring you back somewhere When did you lose control, turning your punk rock dreams into nightmares
