- Meaning
[Verse]
Searching for Nirvana in a crowded room (Oh)
Feels like just us two, sweat like a monsoon
Watching how you move
I know what you're doing, you say you wanna
You wanna get high (High)
All the drugs you'd take if I weren't by your side (Take)
I won't let you down
Wait 'til you come down
[Refrain]
Countin' every breath you take
How'd I get here if it's not fate?
And they say drugs are not your friend
That was the first mistake I made
Can't tell what's real or what is fake
And they say drugs are not your friend
They say drugs are not your friend
You take one, now you're in a trance
You feel like you've been born again
Only until you're bored again
You take, you take, you take, you take
Can't tell what's real or what is fake
Can't tell what's real or what is fake
[Chorus]
I know that you're craving more
You're wanting more (More)
Chasing every dose
(Wait 'til you come down)
I know that you're craving more
You're wanting more (More)
Chasing every dose
(Wait 'til you come down)
[Post-Chorus]
High
Higher, higher, higher, higher
High, high (Oh, oh)
Higher, higher, higher, higher
High (Oh)
[Refrain]
Countin' every breath you take (High)
How'd I get here if it's not fate?
And they say drugs are not your friend (Yeah, high)
That was the first mistake I made
Can't tell what's real or what is fake
And they say drugs are not your friend (Tell me now, can, high)
Countin' every breath you take (High)
How'd I get here if it's not fate?
And they say drugs are not your friend (Yeah, high)
That was the first mistake I made
Can't tell what's real or what is fake
And they say drugs are not your friend (Tell me now, can, high)
[Chorus]
I know that you're craving more (I know)
You're wanting more (More)
Chasing every dose (Chasing every dose)
(Wait 'til you come down)
I know that you're craving more (Oh, know that you want more)
You're wanting more (More)
Chasing every dose (Chasing every dose)
(Wait 'til you come down)
[Outro]
Chasing, chasing every dose
(Wait 'til you come down)
[Verse: Khalid]

He observes his partner's desire to get high and acknowledges the temptation of drugs, while expressing his intention to be there for them and support them as they come down from their highs.
[Refrain: Khalid]
The refrain highlights the internal conflict and confusion caused by drug use.

[Post-Chorus: Khalid]
In the post-chorus, the repeated emphasis on being "high" reinforces the theme of addiction and the overwhelming pursuit of substance-induced euphoria. The repetition mirrors the repetitive nature of craving and the fleeting nature of the high.
[Refrain: Khalid]
The repeated refrain underscores the central theme of the song: the disillusionment with drugs as a means of escape. Khalid laments the initial mistake of turning to substances and the difficulty in discerning reality from illusion, emphasizing the ongoing struggle with addiction.
[Chorus: Khalid]
The chorus is repeated, further emphasizing the continuous cycle of craving and the pursuit of highs. Khalid reiterates the partner's desire for more and the consequences of chasing after each dose, reinforcing the theme of addiction and its effects.
