Drive-By Truckers – Heroin Again lyrics
Losing your joy
Playing with dangerous toys
Insulate 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 old 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

Race to no better thing
Dying using heroin
Just a 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?

It's called for me and tempted me
Never quite captured me
Always just turned away
Lost so many friends that way

I thought they knew better than that
I thought they knew better than that
I thought they knew better than that
I thought they knew better than that
I thought you knew better than that
I thought you knew better than that
