about

Heroin is a destroyer of life.

lyrics

Selfish little existence,
money irrelevant as long as you feed it.
You'll leave your mother crying on the phone,
that crack den is only fuller than your home.
Sunk in darkness and the streets you have to roam,
even with somewhere there you might as well, be, alone.

Ain't gonna be no dope fiend.
Seen that scene from the outside looking in.
There's no glory destroying all you've known and been,
so i'll never be a dope fiend, i'll never be a dope fiend.
You've got a life that's worth living, don't ever be a dope fiend.

Coping on the corners no thoughts of lurking cops,
where you'll end up and who you'll lose risk the lot.
Track marks, collapsing veins are not glamorous,
black to white thought patterns to the rest of us.
Narcissism bought no single for anyone else,
just waiting for your time to put yourself, on the shelf.

Searching for the man constant daily plan,
a tie a flick and a spoon,
the ritual to use,
pumping up the needle pump it into the vein,
chippin' chippin', chippin' away.
Chasin' the dragon your choice has been made.
You're gonna do it all over again.
