Heroin

I don't know just where I'm going
 But I'm goin' to try for the kingdom if I can
 'Cause it makes me feel like I'm a man
 When I put a spike into my vein
 Then I tell you things aren't quite the same
 When I'm rushing on my run
 And I feel just like Jesus' son
 And I guess I just don't know
 And I guess that I just don't know
 I have made very big decision
 I'm goin' to 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
 You can't help me, not you guys
 All you silly girls with all your sweet talk
 You can all go take a fucking walk
 And I guess I just don't know
 And I guess I just don't know
 I wish that I was born a thousand years ago
 I wish that I'd sailed the darkened seas
 On a great big clipper ship
 Going from this land here to that
 I put on a sailor's suit and cap
 Away from the big city
 Where a man cannot be free
 Of all the evils in this town
 And of himself and those around
 Oh, and I guess I just don't know
 Oh, and I guess I just don't know
 Heroin, be the death of me
 Heroin, it's my wife and it's my life
 Because a mainer to my vein
 Leads to a center in my head
 And then I'm better off than dead
 When the smack begins to flow
 Then I really don't care anymore
 About all the Jim-Jims in this town
 And everybody putting everybody else down
 And all of the politicians makin' crazy sounds
 All the dead bodies piled up in mounds, yeah
 Wow, that heroin is in my blood
 And the blood is in my head
 Yeah, thank God that I'm good as dead
 Ooh, thank your God I'm not aware
 I don't care
 And I guess I just don't know
 And I guess I just don't know
