lyrics

Your fingernails are rusted, your hair is filthy
The shadow of your girl is wheezing behind your back
Your accurate brother-in-law, he told you to die
After you took his leather wallet out of his precious rack
Dark black eyes in glory holes
Good night, my heroin ruin

Your newspaper blanket is full of words you don’t understand
Even though the protagonists are driven souls
Your heavy cheeks hang above your tainted robe
As you share the rest of your luck with the humpy mole
Dark black eyes in glory holes
Good night, my heroin ruin

You used to dream of golden horns
Playing melodies of brightening sounds
You used to long for a seat in the orchestra
Of ivory organs and a conductor who frowns
Your stranded mother, she used to call you Gene
Good night, my heroin ruin

Starry-eyed you tried to find shelter in empty faces
In the corner of your mouth was a friable (cracky) stain
You tried to outline your life with a broken pen
Now, beneath your rotten skin tattoo ink runs through your veins
Dark black eyes in glory holes
Good night, my heroin ruin

You used to dream about a shiny new car
You used to chase the mornings behind the hills
All your sails were hopeful, even your eyes were emerald green
Your childhood evenings you used to spend on the window sill
Your stranded mother, she used to call you Gene
Good night, my heroin ruin

You managed to hide your trembling hands and knees
Until all of your dreams did abandon you
But these taut days, they did pass away
And there’s nothing anyone could do
Your stranded mother, she doesn’t call you Gene
Good night, my heroin ruin
