Heroin Again

(albüm: The Unraveling - 2020)

Losing your joy
Playing with dangerous toys
Insulate yourself from life
And all of its big noise

Insinuate a fever dream
Instigate a requiem
A deafening explosion of shame
An orgasm inside your brain

Silly young man
Why you using heroin?
Thought you knew better than that
Thought you knew better than that

Beautiful lost girl
You turned your back on this mean street world
Taste of heaven some part of you dies
'Til you're something you can't recognize

Raised to know better thing
Dying using heroin
A judgement discrepancy
Cutting life expectancy

I thought you knew better than that
Thought you knew better than that
I thought you knew better than that

Didn't '71 teach us anything?
Didn't '94 teach us anything?

It's called to me and tempted me
Never quite captured me
Always just turned away
I've lost so many friends that way

Missing my friends who died using heroin
I thought they knew better than that
I thought they knew better than that

I thought they knew better than that
I thought they knew better than that
I thought you knew better than that
I thought you knew better than that
