(heroin - rocknroll animal)

At this point in time in my life when I had already grown up, but then agian, nothing was meaningful anymore, or something was meaningful..

The love of the other side, that is my love, and it took me only a month and a half of ever deeper experiences to find my health was deteriorating

And all along i could break down and cry for this drug. this drug heroin was in my blood, and went through my neck.. into the center of my head...

and i could hear the organs playing and the gentle arpeggios flowing and then all the sudden

my heart would start to speed up

as i was closing in on dying.

as the blood begins to flow.. as it shoots across his neck.. and leads to a "center in my head" sung so accurately into my emotions i would cry everytime

i lay there on my bed alone

and i am better off dead

and i can hear the organs playing and the guitars crying

slowly

in the center of my head

the heroin glows into my life that was

i cannot want it to go

and better yet i am contented with the world

but the pain is felt in my nose .. and in my veins and my organs

inside my body is aching

but i am in heaven

time is now less timeless moment forever is until the pain shall grow

but i will always be in heaven

i will always be in heaven

my tears will find their way into a new life and a new world long gone with this universe, long after this universe is gone my tears my tears will find there way into an eternity that

i guess i just don't know i guess i just don't know
