Best "Opiate" Songs

[ziggo]

Back when I used to do H I'd listen to this song often when I was injecting.

 

[Mr.Scagnattie]

I don't know if I've ever posted this but it's a great dope fiend song.

 

[TheStarOnIR]

(Chris Cornell) Temple of the Dog- Times Of Trouble

*The lyrics certaintly steal the show. Cornell's wide vocal range complimented by the slow mysterious dark but still serene melody will have the J-Bird's quiver and the stone sober shiver.

This tune is truly amazing!

(I'm not a user but still love this song.) *

CHEERS!

When the spoon is hot
And the needle's sharp
And you drift away
I can hear you say
That the world in black
Is upon your back
And your body shakes
So you ditch away
And you close the shades

Don't try to do it
Don't try to kill your time
You might do it
Then you can't change your mind
You've got a hold on to your time
Till you break through these
Times of trouble

When you try to talk
And the words get hard
And they put you down
Don't you stay
Don't you ditch away

I saw you swinging
Swinging your mother's sword
I know you're playing but
Sometimes the rules get hard
But if somebody left you out on a ledge
If somebody pushed you over the edge
If somebody loved you and left you for dead
You got to hold on to your time till you break
Through these times of trouble

[Ninae]

I might have said it before, but I think "Big in Japan" is a good metaphor for that. It kind of makes you have to make you face up to the silliness of it all and is really quite tragic.

 

[lightofmeaning]

This song always takes me to/keeps me in that place.
