Most people assume that the person that is addicted to the drug is abusing drugs. That's a misconception.
The Drug abusing the person rather than the person abusing the drug.
Think of it as a man debating with the drug itself. As if the drug is talking to him.
The man starts the debate...
By the seventh line, the drug knows it's in control and begins to mock him...
As he becomes more submissive to the drug, the drug becomes more aggressive.
The drug being ....Herion.
Man = Pathetic (Drug = benign)
Drug = Accept it (Man = undermine)
Drug = Your opinion (Man = my justification)
Drug = Happy (Man = safe)
Drug = Servent (Man = caged)
Drug = Malice (Man = Utter weakness)
No toleration
At this point the drug knows it's in control and it just progressively becomes more and more violent to the person.
The more a person is abused the more submissive they become.
My thoughts on the song;
This is a very unique
illustration of the addict at the mercy of his addiction. I applaud the writers behind the song because they have a true understanding of the struggles behind addiction.
My thoughts on addiction;
A drug addict doesn't want to be addicted. It's ludicrous to think that is a life choice for a person. Could a person make different choices to prevent themselves from becoming an addict? Sure they could , just remember though , No one says "When I grow up I want to be a drug addict".
Addiction is a side effect. It's not on purpose, and it's not by choice.
Truth is; drugs are never the problem.
Drugs typically is somebody's solution to a problem.
The side effect of that is addiction.

If you know someone that is struggling with addiction be supportive.
