U2 – Running to Stand Still

kirjoittaja

”Sweet the sin
Bitter, the taste in my mouth
I see seven towers
But I only see one way out
You got to cry without weeping
Talk without speaking
Scream without raising your voice
You know I took the poison from the poison stream
Then I floated out of here”

Tuntuu kertovan riippuvuudesta.

Red Hot Chili Peppers – Don’t Forget Me

kirjoittaja

”I’m a meth lab first rehab
Take it all off
And step inside the running cab
There’s a love that knows the way

I’m the rainbow in your jail cell
All the memories of
Everything you’ve ever smelled
Not alone, I’ll be there
Tell me when you want to go”

Biisin on ajateltu kertovan huumeiden käytöstä, mutta myös muitakin tulkintoja on olemassa.

Oasis – Morning Glory

kirjoittaja

”All your dreams are made
When you’re chained to the mirror and the razor blade
Today’s the day that all the world will see
Another sunny afternoon
Walking to the sound of my favorite tune
Tomorrow never knows what it doesn’t know too soon
Need a little time to wake up
Need a little time to wake up wake up
Need a little time to wake up
Need a little time to rest your mind”

Biisi kertonee kokaiiniriippuvuudesta. Aine ei suinkaan tainnut olla vieras Gallagherin veljeksille.

Lynyrd Skynyrd – The Needle and the Spoon

kirjoittaja

”I’ve seen a lot of people who thought they were cool
But then again, lord I’ve seen a lot of fools
Well, I hope you people, lord can hear what I say
You’ll have your chance to hit it some day

Don’t mess with the needle or a spoon
Or any trip to the moon
It’ll take you away”

Hienot sanat piikkihuumeiden käytöstä.
