Lou Reed - Heroin Lyrics
I dont know just where Im goingBut Im goin to try for the kingdom if I cancause it makes me feel like Im a manWhen I put a spike into my veinThen I tell you things arent quite the sameWhen Im rushing on my runAnd I feel just like jesus sonAnd I guess I just dont knowAnd I guess that I just dont knowI have made very big decisionIm goin to try to nullify my lifecause when the blood begins to flowWhen it shoots up the droppers neckWhen Im closing in on deathYou cant help me not you guysAll you sweet girls with all your sweet talkYou can all go take a walkAnd I guess I just dont knowAnd I guess I just dont knowI wish that I was born a thousand years agoI wish that Id sailed the darkened seasOn a great big clipper shipGoing from this land here to thatI put on a sailors suit and capAway from the big cityWhere a man cannot be freeOf all the evils in this townAnd of himself and those aroundOh, and I guess I just dont knowOh, and I guess I just dont knowHeroin, be the death of meHeroin, its my wife and its my lifeBecause a mainer to my veinLeads to a center in my headAnd then Im better off than deadWhen the smack begins to flowThen I really dont care anymoreAbout all the jim-jims in this townAnd everybody putting everybody else downAnd all of the politicians makin crazy soundsAll the dead bodies piled up in mounds, yeahWow, that heroin is in my bloodAnd the blood is in my headYeah, the gods good as deadOoohhh, God that Im not awareI just dont careAnd I guess I just dont knowAnd I guess I just dont know
