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 dream's 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 disguise
And say, that every thing'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, "Was the best I had
No more mountains left to climb
The world so slow, all my dream's just too high
To be fulfilled in time"
