Heroin

Lou Reed

A thousand years ago
And I wish that I sailed
On a great big clipper ship
Goin' from this land into that
Away from the big city -
Away from the big city
Of all the evils in this town
And of himself and those around
And I guess that I just don't know
And I guess that I just don't know
But not mine
Jesus died for somebody's sins
I don't know just where I'm goin' - Ahh
But I'm gonna try for the kingdom
'Cause it makes me feel like I'm a man
When I put a spike into my vein
the same
It's a mainline to my pain
But not mine - HEROIN
Jesus died for somebody's sins
But not mine - HEROIN
I said, Jesus died for somebody's sins
I have made a very big decision
I gonna try to nullify my life -
I get so low and then the smack flows
I don't care I'm gonna make it my wife
And shoots up the droppers neck
And I'm closin' in on death
And I guess that I just don't know
And I guess that I just don't know
But not mine - HEROIN
Jesus died for somebody's sins
But not mine - HEROIN
I said, Jesus died for somebody's sins
I said, Jesus died for somebody's sins
But not mine - HEROIN not mine,
Jesus died for somebody's sins
But not mine - HEROIN
Jesus died for somebody's sins
Jesus died for somebody's sins
But not mine - HEROIN
Don't touch that needle
V.R. H E R O I N
V.R. HELL H E R O I N (forever)
And I'm closin' in on death
