Heroin
Harry Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You open the door, I let you in
And you gave in to all this sin
We ate oysters and drank coffee
Seashells lined up all through the sea
I could be your heroin
Stop the rain and let me in
I could soothe all the sin
I could be your heroin

I looked over the blue skies
I take you under, I take you there
I sat upon the top of the stairs
I heard, I heard, I wondered why
I could be your heroin
Stop the rain and let me in
I could soothe all the sin
I could be your heroin
Ease the pain, ease the strain (x6)
I could be your heroin
Stop the rain and let me in
I could soothe all the sin
I could be your heroin
I could be your heroine
Stop the rain and let me in

I could be your heroine
I could soothe, I could soothe

Overall Meaning

Harry's song Heroin is an emotional and introspective track that explores the desire for escapism and the relief of pain through drug use. The opening lyrics "You open the door, I let you in / And you gave in to all this sin" present the idea of giving in to temptation and succumbing to self-destructive behavior. The imagery of "oysters and coffee" and "seashells lined up all through the sea" creates a dreamlike, surreal atmosphere, as if the singer is lost in a trance-like state induced by heroin.

The chorus emphasizes the idea of heroin being a means of escape and relief from pain, with the lines "Stop the rain and let me in / I could soothe all the sin." The singer sees themselves as a kind of savior, able to ease the pain and strain of those around them. The repetition of "I could be your heroin" and "I could be your heroine" drives home the idea of addiction as a kind of twisted love story, with the drug being a substitute for a human connection.

The verses continue to explore the singer's perspective as they "look over the blue skies" and "sit upon the top of the stairs," seemingly lost in their own thoughts and fantasies. The line "I heard, I heard, I wondered why" suggests a sense of confusion and detachment from reality. Overall, Heroin is a haunting and poignant track that captures the complexities of addiction and the search for relief from emotional pain.
