<poem>I don't know just where I'm going | |||
But I'm gonna try for the kingdom, if I can | |||
Cause it makes me feel like I'm a man | |||
When I put a spike into my vein | |||
And I tell you things aren't quite the same | |||
When I'm rushing on my run | |||
And I feel just like Jesus' son | |||
And I guess that I just don't know | |||
And I guess that I just don't know | |||
I have made big decision | |||
I'm gonna try to nullify my life | |||
Cause when the blood begins to flow | |||
When it shoots up the dropper's neck | |||
When I'm closing in on death | |||
You can't help me, not you guys | |||
Or all you sweet girls with all your sweet talk | |||
You can all go take a walk | |||
And I guess I just don't know | |||
And I guess that I just don't know | |||
I wish that I was born a thousand years ago | |||
I wish that I'd sailed the darkened seas | |||
On a great big clipper ship | |||
Going from this land here to that | |||
On a sailor's suit and cap | |||
Away from the big city | |||
Where a man cannot be free | |||
Of all the evils of this town | |||
And of himself and those around | |||
Oh, and I guess that I just don't know | |||
Oh, and I guess that I just don't know | |||
Heroin, be the death of me | |||
Heroin, it's my wife and it's my life, haha | |||
Because a mainline into my vein | |||
Leads to a center in my head | |||
And then I'm better off than dead | |||
Because when the smack begins to flow | |||
I really don't care anymore | |||
About all the Jim-Jims in this town | |||
And all the politicians making crazy sounds | |||
And everybody putting everybody else down | |||
And all the dead bodies piled up in mounds | |||
Cause when the smack begins to flow | |||
And I really don't care anymore | |||
Ah, when that heroin is in my blood | |||
Heh, and that blood is in my head | |||
Then thank God that I'm as good as dead | |||
And thank your God that I'm not aware | |||
And thank God that I just don't care | |||
And I guess I just don't know | |||
Oh, and I guess I just don't know</poem> | |||
