walking down the streets at night
|
i see her stumbling through the rain
|
a skinny figure in the dark
|
her face a shade of grey
|
|
|
|
begging here and barking there
|
she¢¥s swearing all the time
|
her fingers fumbling with her hair
|
a dirty mess of grime
|
|
|
|
and she starts to cry and she¢¥s asking why
|
her life¢¥s always the same
|
but she does not see, that unfortunately
|
there¢¥s no one here to blame
|
|
|
|
"heroin" she said, "was the best i had...
|
no more mountains left to climb.
|
the world so slow... all my dreams just too high
|
to be fulfilled in time...!"
|
|
|
|
she grabs my arm... and i feel alarmed
|
her fingers gripping tight
|
i see her pleading eyes... so i start to diguise
|
and say, that everything¢¥s alright...
|
|
|
|
and the reason why i pretended and lied
|
is that i don¢¥t want to kill
|
the poor dream that¢¥s left in the deepest cleft
|
of the thing that she calls will...!
|
|
|
|
"heroin" she said...
