Heroin, She Said lyrics

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
She´s 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 diguise
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...
