sometthin that flacky said in the "you know you a junkie when...." made me think of this thread. We had both mentioned that "you know you a junkie when you hear songs that realistically , you do know they aint about drugs at all, but you relate almost every song you hear to dope anyways and you just "know" that its secretly about dope/addiction."
This thread AINT about songs that ARE about drugs. If you come up in this thread and post "Heroin, by the velvet underground" you are totally missin the point and you are doinitwrong. Its about regular songs, that most likely aint about addiction or dope or drugs or w/ever...but the junkie in you sees references to drugs in everything, and you associate the song with your addiction or drug use.
So, post the songs and the SPECIFIC LYRICS that you think are "secretly'' about dope/addiction/drugs. Ill start with a few examples so yall understand wat i am talking about.
Example #1 -
The song "Follow me" by that one hit wonder guy Uncle cracker from like 2001.
It goes "I dont know how i met you i dont know why/but i just cant turn around and say goodbye/all i know is when im with you, you make me free/and you swim thru my veins like a fish in the sea/singin 'follow me everything is all right/ill be the one to tuck you in at night/and if you wanna leave i can guarantee you wont find nobody else like me.""
Tell me that shit aint about dope! :D Come on...But i think that if you told that to any 'normal' person they would be like you stupid...that shits a love song.
Example #2 -
"I want to break free" by Queen. (LOL let me explain...I worked at a place where the radio reception sucked, and the only station we got was the classic rock channel so i learned to love some of those songs becuz its all i heard everyday.)
The lyrics that seemed to me to be about bein addicted to dope goes like this...
"I want to break free...I want to break free/I want to break free from your lies youre so self satisfied I dont need you/I want to break free/ God knows, god knows I want to break free....
part of the verse is "I fallen in love...I fallen in love for the first time, this time i know its for real....."
And my favorite part..."But life still goes on...I cant get used to livin without, livin without, livin without you/By my side/I dont wanna live alone/But god knows/ I got to make it on my own"
Everytime i heard it i always privately made it be a song about my addiction , a song TO addiction, like 'hey fuck you i gotta get outta this life' But, Im 100% sure that aint wat the song is really about. its just wat its about to ME.
Those aint the only ones but I dont want this first post to be too long. I dont think im the only one who does this, imagine non drug songs to be about drugs cuz of course when you a junkie everything is a bout dope, every person you see goin into the bathroom who looks slightly sick is a junkie goin to shoot up, etc, so I hope this thread gets some good replies. I would love to see the other songs that my fellow feens uncovered "secret dope meanings" in
