Heroin, She Said Songtext / Lyric

Walking down the streets at night

I see her stumbling through the rain

A skinny figure in the dark

Her face a shade of grey



Begging here and barking there

Shes swearing all the time

Her fingers fumbling with her hair

A dirty mess of grime



And she starts to cry and she's asking why

Her life's always the same

But she does not see, that unfortunately

There's no one here to blame






"Heroin" she said, "was the best I had...

No more mountains left to climb

The world so slow... all my dreams just too high

To be fulfilled in time...!"



She grabs my arm... and I feel alarmed

Her fingers gripping tight

I see her pleading eyes... so I start to disguise

And say, that everything's alright...



And the reason why I pretended and lied

Is that I don't want to kill

The poor dream that's left in the deepest cleft

Of the thing that she calls will...!



"Heroin" she said, "was the best I had...

No more mountains left to climb

The world so slow... all my dreams just too high

To be fulfilled in time...!"
