Heroin (Velvet Underground cover) Lyrics

I don't know
just where I'm going
But I'm gonna try
For the kingdom in my head
Makes me feel like I'm a man
I put a spike into my veins
I tell you thinks aren't quite the same
When I'm rushing on my run
I and feel like Jesus' son
And I guess that I just don't know
And I guess that I just don't know
whoo, hoo hoo

I made a decision
I'm gonna try to nullify my life
Cause when the blood begins to flow
And you shoot up a droppers neck
And I really don't care no more
And I guess that I just don't know
And I guess that I just don't

heroin
that's me
heroin

I wish I was born a thousand years ago
I wish I could sail the darkest seas
on a great big clipper ship
Moving from this, there, then to that
Over the evils in this town
All the dead boddies piled up on the ground
I lost myself and those around
And I guess that I just don't know
And I guess that I just don't...... know

heroin, heroin
it's my wife
and it's my life
heroin will be the death of me
yeah...

This is way different than the original. I don't like it very much, but I only listened to it once so maybe I'm jumping to conclusions. Good choice of song to cover anyway.
