I think that if you feel that someone you care about is really close to death, self-destroying or in danger this song is easier to understand. But i guess it's better not to live that kind of situation at all and enjoy other songs of rhcp! Drugs are bloody dangerous, they should legalize everything, supply a lot of information and help young people through social service and schools. But no: let's cut school's resources and build prisons. Wise...
lol holly shit for the longest time i thoughgt the chorus was "ifi you see me getting high if you see getting high knock me down" wow i feel like a dumbass
I swear RHCP is so fucking addicting. The first album I heard was By The Way about 2 months after it came out. Next thing you know I started listening to their debut album in 2 days...Blood Sugar sex Magik and Mother's Milk are one of my favourites.
I'm super disappointed with all of the comments I see on here. No one seriously gets the real meaning of this song, the serious truth in it. Utter disappointment. This is a great song, by a great band. People, appreciate what they've written for an amazing soul. R.I.P. Hillel Slovak. You are missed.
@BloodHarvest21 I know this is a late reply but I can't let you go thinking like that, it's "if you see me getting mighty, if you see me getting high" because in Guitar Hero WT they blocked the word "high" I'm pretty sure they wouldn't block out the word "by".
ha ha i made a shrinky dink neclace of their logo and its sooo awesome or at least i thaught it was until someone asked me if i needed help because they thaught i had a red cross neclace and some else asked if it was a fed ex neclace.... i guees no one can appreciate the neclace.... i still think its awesome..... who the hell would think i am in red cross im thirteen.. and fed ex. sheesh people get it together!! oh by the way i love rhcp!!!
@jloganb577 No it's not. The song is an anti-heroin song, written for Hillel Slovak after his death. Yeah, you can pick what you said out of the song but the songs purpose was as I said before.
love this song!! Love the RHCP!!!

Remember when you go to your youtube page and there wasn't an advertisement at the top of the page?
Remember when music videos were uploaded by users and not VEVO
Remember when there wasn't advertisements that never go away?
Remember you couldn't have a limit to favorites?
Remember the famous yellow subscribe button?
WE MISS THE OLD YOUTUBE!
Post this in every video and lets start a youtube riot!
