After using speed I cried for hours listening to this song. It's so fucking real every word in these lyrics describe being strung out on meth so well.

Why would they censor 'crystal meth' if the songs literally about drug addiction, that's ridiculous.

I probably haven't listened to this in 15 years, and yet I remembered the chorus before it started... catchiness.

When I was a kid I had no idea this song was about drug addiction in SF, nor did I realize how I would come to relate to it...definitely have a new appreciation for it.

02:40Why do they cut out this bit:*One**And you hold me**And we are broken**Still it's all that I want to do, just a little now!**Feel myself, heavy on the ground. I'm scared I'm not coming down. No, no!**And I won't run for my life**She's got her jaws now locked down in a smile but nothing is all right**All right*?
