Hand Of Doom Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Pippin the Mercury 

Cover art for Hand Of Doom lyrics by Black Sabbath

You know the Velvet Underground song "Heroin"? Is it just me, or is this sort of like Black Sabbath's equivalent of that?

Also, about how the Vietnam veterans would have had access to heroin because they were in Asia...I should have been able to have made that connection, but I never even though about it until now.

This version doesn't make as much sense as the alternate lyrics on the "Past Lives" version. This version is almost totally about heroin; but talks about "colors in your mind", which doesn't match. The live version contains other acid related lyrics like "...because you trip a lot", so it is more about drugs in general.

I meant that comment for the whole thread; but couldn't figure out how to delete it, so I could re-post it.
