| | Drugs Or Me Lyrics Artist(Band):Jimmy Eat World
Stay with me You're the one that I need You make the hardest things Seem easy Keep my heart Somewhere drugs don't go Where the sunshine slows Always keep me close If only you could see the stranger next to me you promise, you promise that you're done but I can't tell you from the drugs Don't let go we'll dig a great big hole Down an endless hole, We'll both go You're so blind! You can't save me this time Hope comes from inside And I feel so low tonight If only you could see the stranger next to me you promise, you promise that you're done But I can't tell you from the drugs I wish that you could see This face in front of me You're sorry, you swear it: you're done But I can't tell you from the drugs (take me) I need your hands (so far) To pull me up Take the wheel (take me) Out from me (so far) Out from me If only you could see the stranger next to me you promise, you promise that you're done But I can't tell you from the drugs I wish that you could see This face in front of me You're sorry, you swear it: you're done But I can't tell you from the drugs Keep my heart somewhere drugs don't go Where the sunshine slows always keep me close If you find some error in Drugs Or Me Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me?

And I wasn't mad at her, because I loved her so much and I just told her drugs or me not even knowing about this song I only found out about this song maybe a month ago when my computer restarted and I downloaded all my Jimmy Eat World songs again but anyways. She "promised" she was done. But what do I know she could still be doing it in my back again, it haunts me everynight and I mostly wake up in tears but, it's reality, some people would rather fuck themselves up with drugs and everything and well, like in the song "I can't tell you from the drugs" which is why I have no druggie friends. No offence to all you who "enjoy" drugs, if you can even "enjoy" something that stupid =_= idk, I'm just saying. (Sorry my english isn't the best I'm french ^^") personal experience | Reviewer: Tiffany | 7/20/09 I've loved this song for years and I do believe that he's talking to himself when he wrote this. I used to listen to this song all the time back when I had a coke problem but my emotions were so numbed by the drug that I looked at it as oh I'm just having fun when in reality I had a problem. My ex boyfriend of 4 years and I just broke up he also has a coke problem and is a heavy alcoholic but he has yet to stop. I wish I knew a way to get through to him but what he doesn't realize is that he is so unhappy with himself that he doesn't care about the self destructive behavior. It makes me sad to even talk about because we have a son together so it's not like I can just move on from him forever, I need him to be a good dad. I wish that I could get through to him, I left him this week so hopefully it will be a wake up call but I don't think thats enough... A day to quit | Reviewer: mylose64 | 3/24/09 I heard this song in Cancun Mexico By the ocean. It was on my friends ipod. A few days before the trip we were driving in my car and She said she doesn't like it when I smoke pot. Me and her have been such good friends and we used to smoke all the time but she stopped a while ago. I feel like this song opened up my mind to everything. I came back from Cancun and Stopped, I feel like this song is about the artist talking to himself and also as a friend talking to him. It's such a sad song. I feel like i've lost a few girlfriends because of all the drugs i've done, and If i just had this song back then I think i wouldn't have chose my freinds over the girls i was with. This song is so simple, and it's a huge eye opener and after reading these comments I wish one of my girlfriends would have just said something, or showed me this song. sad | Reviewer: shay | 3/13/09 at first he was always getting high off weed and i didnt mind it. but this time it was coke and its like he doesnt care about me only his friends that fill his head with drugs and it hurts because i still love him but i have to let him go:/ Drugs or me... | Reviewer: angela | 3/8/09 My boyfriend never wants to hang out with me because he is so busy smoking and getting high. I never would have cared if he smoked but the fact that his priorities are weed over his girlfriend of 3 years. Friends obviously fill his head and make him see different views since they are under the influence to. I just love this song since it says exactly what is going on.... It sucks True | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/3/09 When i first heard the song, i was sad and felt bad for the person. The second time I realized that I was in this situation. My ex boyfriend broke up with me and it hurt and he did turn to something that was truly him. After, realizing this was my thoughts to lyrics, i wanted to tell him, but i couldn't. The more i kept it in the worst it got. Finally, i found out he had actually turned to drugs. It killed me. I could and still can relate to the part where it says "Keep my heart somewhere drugs don't go." and now hearing this song i just wish he realized how bad it hurts. The part "I wish that you could see this face in front of me, you're sorry you swear it, you're done." is so true. He always says he is done and he will never be.I tell him this song reminds me of him, but he doesn't understand. I will always have feelings for him, but the drugs i will not. Drugs Or Me | Reviewer: Ben | 12/5/08 Look a little deeper...what if he's talking to himself. I have been fighting addiction for 2 years and after I listened to this song several times in a row after being very familiar with the lyrics for years, I had a duh moment and thought to myself how it doesn't necessarily have to mean he's speaking to some other person. Looking back on my past I know myself as a completely different person and through my whole process of deciding what my future will be I found that when I ask myself questions or think about what "If you could only see the stranger next to me" I am talking to myself. Maybe this isn't so literal. Maybe I'm wrong but as an artist I find that I write deeply personal songs in a way that distances myself from just straight up writing a journal entry or letter. There is a possibility that this song is way more abstract than everyone thinks. That's the only way that an artist can truly connect to people and make the deepest emotions in his soul universal in a sense. Well I guess this is what makes dissecting lyrics fun! Maybe this input will open up a whole new dimension for someone like me that's looking for strength in one of his favorite song writers. Enjoy. I have. Peace and Love. The Meaning | Reviewer: Alex | 12/2/08 The meaning of this song. Stay with me You're the one that I need – His girlfriend was a drug addict and they are tearing apart because of it. You make the hardest things Seem easy – She made his worries go away. Keep my heart Somewhere drugs don't go – He doesn’t want her to affect his life with her drugs. Where the sunshine slows –His feelings when he is with her … Happy, Excited. Sunshine ( symbol ) – She makes him stay out of his unhappiness, but her drugs put him in the dark. So he wants to be in the light of the sun Always keep me close – He doesn’t want her to leave him alone. If only you could see the stranger next to me – He’s saying she isn’t the same person when she does drugs. you promise, you promise that you're done – She always lied about stopping the drugs. but I can't tell you from the drugs – He doesn’t think she is the same person. He can’t tell if she is on drugs or not ever. In other words, she is the drug and the drug is her. Don't let go – Don’t throw away your life to drugs. we'll dig a great big hole – We will find a place where all our troubles to go away. Down an endless hole, We'll both go – We will get rid of these problems and be happy together in our special place. Hole ( symbol )- A place where are their troubles will go away. Peace of mind. You're so blind! – She is so conceited she doesn’t know how much her problems affect him. You can't save me this time – He can’t go back to her because she won’t stop her drug usage. Hope comes from inside And I feel so low tonight – He doesn’t have a lot of hope for their relationship. If only you could see the stranger next to me you promise, you promise that you're done But I can't tell you from the drugs I wish that you could see This face in front of me – She doesn’t look the same, more insecure, sick and unhappy You're sorry, you swear it: you're done – She is telling him she will stop but she knows she can’t. But I can't tell you from the drugs (take me) I need your hands – He misses her touch. (so far) To pull me up – She used to help him when things got hard and now she doesn’t and he wants her to do that again. Take the wheel – She was the one who lead his life because he can’t take care of himself. (take me) Out from me - He doesn’t want to lead his life anymore and wants her to do it but without the drugs. (so far) Out from me If only you could see the stranger next to me you promise, you promise that you're done But I can't tell you from the drugs I wish that you could see This face in front of me You're sorry, you swear it: you're done But I can't tell you from the drugs Keep my heart somewhere drugs don't go all that work just for you guys.
