Heroin Again Video (MV)






Drive-By Truckers - Heroin Again Lyrics
Official




Losing your joy
Playing with dangerous toys
Isolate yourself from life
And all of its big noise
Insinuate a fever dream
Instigate a requiem
A deafening explosion of shame
An orgasm inside your brain

Silly young men
Why you using heroin
Thought you knew better than that
Thought you knew better than that

Beautiful lost girl
You turned your back on this mean street world
Taste of heaven
Some part of you dies
'Til you're something you can't recognize
Raised to know better than
Dying using heroin
A judgement discrepancy
Cutting life expectancy
I thought you knew better than that
Thought you knew better than that
I thought you knew better than that

Didn't '71 teach us anything
Didn't '94 teach us anything
Discovered me and tempted me
Never quite captured me
Always just turned away
I've lost so many friends that way

Missing my friends
Who died using heroin
I thought they knew better than that
I thought they knew better than that

Thought you knew better than that
Thought you knew better than that
Thought you knew better than that
Thought you knew better than that
