Heroin [1969 The Velvet Underground Live] The Velvet Underground

[Verse 1]
I don't know just where I'm going
And 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
Then 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

[Verse 2]
I have made a very big decision
I'm going to 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 girls with all your sweet pretty talk
Ah you can all go take a walk
And I guess I just don't know
And I guess that I just don't know

[Verse 3]
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 and that
Away from the big cities
Where a man cannot be free
Of all the evil in this town
And of himself and those around
And I guess that I just don't know
And I guess that I just don't know
