The Heroin Song Lyrics

The Heroin Song lyrics





How can something so cliche, something so pathetic 

Something so stupid be regarded as poetic 

With mum on methadone and daddy on the nod 

It's a picture full of death a syringe full of snot 



You shoot up, you die. You shoot up, you die 

And if your body lives, then you die inside 



Another paper, another shot 

Is the rust worth the risk, fuck no it's not 

Our generation should be smart enough to know 

The syringe, the gun, your life you blow 



You shoot up, you die, you shoot up, you die 

A false sense of security, you shoot up you die. 

And now it's too late to change your mind. 



Your life is empty, you fill it up with smack 

Too much one night you end up on your back 

You say you don't care, you're not afraid of dying 

Now you're on a respirator and all your friends are crying 

And now it's too late to change your mind!
