Heroin lyrics

Artist  : Velvet underground 
Song : Heroin
 
(Reed)   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 now, you guys  And a 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  I
really don't care anymore  About all the
Jim-Jim's in this town  And all the politicians
makin' crazy sounds  And everybody puttin'
everybody else down  And all the dead bodies
piled up in mounds   'Cause when the smack begins
to flow  Then I really don't care anymore  Ah,
when the heroin is in my blood  And that blood is
in my head  Then thank God that I'm as good as
dead  Then thank your God that I'm not aware  And
thank God that I just don't care  And I guess I
just don't know  And I guess I just don't know
