>>Nun habe ich mein Leben lang Angst vor dem Sterben gehabt. Und jetzt DAS!<<

The Velvet Underground - Heroin

I don´t know just where I´m going
But I´m gonna 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
And I´ll tell ya, things aren´t quite the same
When I´m rushing on my run
And I feel just like Jesus´ son
And I guess that I just don´t know
And I guess that I just don´t know

I have made the big decision
I´m 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 you can´t help me not, you guys
And all you sweet girls with all your sweet silly talk
You can all go take a walk
And I guess that I just don´t know
And I guess that I just don´t know

I wish that I was born a thousand years ago
I wish that I´d sail the darkened seas
On a great big clipper ship
Going from this land here to that
In a sailor´s suit and cap
Away from the big city
Where a man can not be free
Of all of the evils of this town
And of himself, and those around
Oh, and I guess that I just don´t know
Oh, and I guess that 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 and dead
Because when the smack begins to flow
