Harry
Shannon Loveridge 1983 (Morgantown wv)
Harry ( what addiction can do)
Hi, my name is Harry
You may know me as Heroin
Let me take you
Into the world....
I come from.
I can twist your mind
Take over your dreams
Take over your body
Make it be
What is does not seem.
They know me by stamp
Not one to mail a letter
But one that will change you
Surely not for the better
Enter my world
Let me crash yours
Let ol' Harry
Take you for a twirl
I can crash a prom queens dreams
Make her invision things
She would never believe
I can take a boy from the court
Wiping him from his sport
My name is Harry
Got a minute
