The Hero and the Heroin

Jason Rubero

So sad
They said that you were dead
Years before you closed your eyes
You had a gift for the age
Turned a deaf ear to swoon and sigh

Shooting your star with syringe
They said at the clinic you cringed
And cried "I know you're out there"
"I know you're out there"
"I know you're out there"
"I know you're out there"

It must've been
So grand to make it big
And do all those things you got to do
But you were old
And drawn out at thirty one
And dead at thirty two

Fanatics my honor your crypt
But I think you squandered your gift
And hoarded gold in your soul lift
So it could not rise...

"I know you're out there"
"I know you're out there"
"I know you're out there"
"I know you're out there"
