Way Too High
Mike Perry Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Leave our initials in the concrete
Put your body on me and go slow
And maybe this will last forever
But we're both destructive
So we'll come close

You know, no, we'll never grow up
Catching a buzz, sippin' on a solo cup
Wearing baby blue jeans
Only eighteen in the twenty-seven club
Staying up all night, you know what I like
You could be my ride or die

'Cause what's love when
You're way too young
If it ain't getting way too high
If it ain't getting way too high
What's love when you're way too high
Don't leave now
'Cause what's love when
You're way too young
If it ain't getting way too high

You hit me harder than a first love
I liked when it hurts so knock me out
I'm seeing stars under my eyelids
Baby, we're the bad kids
They warned us about

You know, no, we'll never grow up
Catching a buzz, sippin' on a solo cup
When you wear your gold chain
Cheap Champagne
And a bag of, yeah, the real good stuff
Staying up all night, you know what I like
You could be my ride or die

'Cause what's love when
You're way too young
If it ain't getting way too high
If it ain't getting way too high
What's love when you're way too high
Don't leave now
'Cause what's love when
You're way too young
If it ain't getting way too high

One more hit, just one
More hit and baby, that's it
Yeah, I found heaven in your breathing
Yeah, I found heaven
In the backseat of your pickup
I swear that it's just one more hit
Just one more hit and baby, that's it
Yeah, I found heaven in your breathing
Yeah, I found heaven
In the backseat of your pickup
I swear that we'll never

No, we'll never grow up
Catching a buzz, sippin' on a solo cup
Wearing baby blue jeans
Only eighteen in the twenty-seven club
Staying up all night, you know what I like
You could be my ride or die

'Cause what's love when you're way too young
If it ain't getting way too high
If it ain't getting way too high
What's love when you're way too high
Don't leave now




'Cause what's love when you're way too young
If it ain't getting way too high

Overall Meaning

The song "Way Too High" by Mike Perry is a story of young love and reckless behavior. The lyrics suggest that the couple knows they are not meant to be together for the long haul, but they are enjoying the moment and the thrill of being young and wild. They are living life on the edge, indulging in drugs and alcohol, and ignoring the warnings of others.


The chorus is a reflection of the couple's mentality. The singer questions the meaning of love when they are "way too young" and implies that love can only be defined through wild and reckless behavior. The singer finds "heaven in [the other person's] breathing" and says they will "never grow up" or change.


The lyrics also suggest that the couple is aware of the eventual end of their relationship. They know they are destructive, and things may not end well. However, they are willing to take the risk and enjoy the moment.


Overall, the song is a bittersweet portrayal of young love and the feeling of invincibility that comes with being young.
