Lou Reed
Heroin (Demo)
[Verse 1: Stephan Jenkins]
I don't know
Just where I'm going
But I, gonna try for the kingdom if I can
'Cause it makes me feel like I'm a man
To put a spike into my veins
I'll tell you things aren't quite the same
When I'm rushing on my run
And I feel just like Jesus' son

[Chorus: Stephan Jenkins]
Well, I guess that just don't know
Well, I guess that just don't know

[Verse 2: Stephan Jenkins]
I made a decision
Well I, gonna try
To nullify my life
'Cause when the blood begins to flow
When it shoots up the dropper's neck
When I'm closing in on death
And I really don't care no more

[Chorus: Stephan Jenkins]
Well, I guess that just don't know
And I guess that just don't know
[Interlude: Stephan Jenkins]
Heroin!
Death of me, yeah yeah
Heroin!

[Verse 3: Stephan Jenkins]
But I wish I was born a thousand years ago
And I wish I had sailed the darkened seas
On a great, big clipper ship
Moving from this coast and to that
Of all of the evils in this town
All the dead bodies piled up on the ground
I lost myself and those who helped

[Chorus: Stephan Jenkins]
And I guess that I just don't know
And I guess that I just don't ... know

[Outro: Stephan Jenkins]
Heroin, be my end
Heroin, it's my wife, and it's my life
Heroin, be the death of me
