Heroin Elect

Heroin elect
In the shadow of the tenements
A rain is slowly pushing rusty inks
Along the pavements

And here we have yet another starless night
And here it brings is, face to face
As it brings another face to face
With her appointed fate

And yet again we have the tale
That is out aspirations
Of that tragic, fatal female

And we have closed our eyes, shut tight
And we raised her up
Far beyond our sooty clamour
Set her down upon a da'is

And abased ourselves
Before our heroine
How she has captured our imaginations

In the shadow of machines and terraces
The lights of tout le monde shining
A thousand lives away

She's caught somewhere in this twilight
As it takes her step by step
As it brings her face to face
With her appointed fate

Those filaments, they are queuing Right
Along her tired veins
And our lips, they are twitching anticipations

And we have closed our eyes, shut tight
And we raised her up
Far beyond our sooty clamour
Set her down upon a da'is

And abased ourselves
Before our heroine
How she has captured our imaginations

And w have closed our eyes, shut tight
And we raised her up
Far beyond our sooty clamour
Set her down upon a da'is

And abased ourselves
Before our heroine
How she needs only needles and
Guitars
