They say it's the kiss of death
Out on the street
Now show [bad word] 
By selling it cheap
Legalize heroin 
The war on [bad word] is a joke
You're making war on the people
While you're killing their hope.

Because nothing looks right 
When I see your eyes 
And I can't sleep at night 
Until I can leave it all behind me 
Until I can leave this all behind me.

Legalize heroin
Let the government deal
Make it practically free
So we won't have to steal 
Take the funds from enforcement 
And give them to schools 
And to people who need it most 
So they can get food. 

Because nothing looks right 
When I see your eyes 
And I can't sleep at night 
Until I can leave it all behind me 
Until I can leave this all behind me.

They're filling the prisons
You're losing the game 
Your making war on the people
Not sharing the blame 
Legalize heroin 
And make a new plan 
To stop the flow of narcotics 
You got to stop the demand.

Because nothing looks right 
When I see your eyes 
And I can't sleep at night 
Until I can leave it all behind me 
Until I can leave this all behind me.
