if your looking for more opiate tunes check out Cold Blue Steel And Sweet Fire by Joni Mitchell that's also a good one.

@CHASxWILSON because an opiate high is one of the most blissful things that can happen to a human being. It's ugly in a long run and no, I'm not recommending it, but my god, it can be beautiful to a user. If it wasn't, people wouldn't be doing it.

@CHASxWILSON - It's a love song. An opiate addict (addiction in it's purest form) is profoundly in love with the opiate (no matter what it is), and while consciously an addict may know the "ugliness" of the drug, ultimately the love for it (it fulfills a physical and emotional NEED that nothing else can fulfill) is romanticized and thus you have beautiful music about addiction to opiates. "Every junkie's like a setting sun."

@BILSKI92 That's the definition of great art bb. Transcending all time & space & capturing universal experiences.

Quicksilver Messenger Service rocks this song too!

Im 18 and for as old as this song my friend showed me... this song is legendary in my opinon feels like my life right now .

[CHASxWILSON]

This is somewhat of a companion song to Neil Young's "Needle and the Damage Done." It's an enigma to me why such beautiful music comes from describing such an ugly thing.
