Think about it, read it, think some more, if you have to read it again.

I'm feeling rough, I'm feeling raw, I'm in the prime of my life.
Let's make some music, make some money, find some models for wives.
I'll move to Paris, shoot some heroin, and fuck with the stars.
You man the island and the cocaine and the elegant cars.

This is our decision, to live fast and die young.
We've got the vision, now let's have some fun.

Yeah, it's overwhelming, but what else can we do.
Get jobs in offices, and wake up for the morning commute.

Forget about our mothers and our friends
We're fated to pretend
To pretend



I'll miss the playgrounds and the animals and digging up worms
I'll miss the comfort of my mother and the weight of the world
I'll miss my sister, miss my father, miss my dog and my home
Yeah, I'll miss the boredom and the freedom and the time spent alone.


There's really nothing, nothing we can do
Love must be forgotten, life can always start up anew.
The models will have children, we'll get a divorce
We'll find some more models, everything must run it's course.


We'll choke on our vomit and that will be the end


Moral of the story...

Be a responsible drug user, this world isn't akin to people who live in a dream land.

Don't forget your family, your friends and anything important to you. Once you lose them things will never be the same, in the end they are all you have... They are the only ones who will come to your grave and leave flowers.
 
Nope.


But the point is:

There is no skilled drug user, anything can happen... You're not a superhuman, ya may feel like one but you're not.
Our bodies can only take so much and after a while, you decide to take just one xanax bar...... You will never wake up.

Don't forget about the people who you love.
Drugs NEVER come first.

I learned that the hard way.

And I never wish that upon anyone else.
 
Not a overdose, your body wille ventually give out fool

Can you expand on how eventually my body will weaken to the point that one xanax bar will kill me?

The models will have children, we'll get a divorce
We'll find some more models, everything must run it's course.

I liked this bit. I might steal it.
 
The xanax bar thing I understood as one xanax bar too many on top of other drugs as that's the only way to really die from it. Otherwise I can't really see how you can die from one bar.

It's definitely important to cherish the ones you love and the ones that love you. Experiences with addiction have brought me much closer to my family. My life revolves around them now instead of myself. I love seeing them happy.

But he specifically said not an overdose. Even if it was the mouse that sunk the boat when used at the same time as other drugs it would still be an overdose.

Most drugs of abuse will cause health deterioration with heavy usage.

I imagine you would have to be seriously fragile for one xanax bar to kill you.
 
^One xanax bar will not just suddenly kill you, your body doesn't just suddenly give out without a lot of warning and one xanax bar alone won't make it more likely to give out.

Also we aren't all in that boat in that not all drugs wear out the mind and body. Also I think there are skilled drug users and that it's possible to use many drugs safely.
 
True, but most don't have the knowledge we do.

We on this forum and others are lucky.

This is the big picture, as in your future.

A lot of drugs age the body to a certain degree.
The older we get, the weaker, and more fragile we get.
And abusing things for years can cause mental and physical damage, or simply put things out-of-whack even after we stop.

He purposely exaggerated, but I knew what he meant.

posting mgmt lyrics in BDD? that song is about being a rockstar for a moment and then settling down when it's times. literally.
 
I played the hell out of that record when I first got it, always loved that song.

Yeah, I'm definitely in that boat, haven't gone as far as some but I've definitely gone further than most. This post makes me think of Heath Ledger or Brittany Murphy, I don't know how knowledgeable they were but it sounds like if either of them had taken one less pill or hit on their fateful day they may still be here. But it's not just famous people, everyone is important to people around them and it's easy to forget this and good to be reminded.

Personally I never was much of a Brittany Murphy fan but I thought Heath Ledger was one of our best actors and it's a shame that someone who cared so much about their craft is gone, it's people like him, and us that the world really needs. The sensitive people with vision who don't fit in are more susceptible to falling into these traps at times. But regardless it's our responsibility to watch out for ourselves when playing with fire so to speak.

I can personally think of many nights where I went way overboard with the gin, xanax, dexedrine, opiates, ambien...etc.... I often think of how I felt when I woke up sometimes days later that if I had taken even one more pill or drink I wouldn't even be here.

Thanks for posting this, it's a good reminder, something we should all think about.
 
You won't find some good heroin in Paris, well, except if you're a rock star.
