Semi Charmed Life by Third Eye Blind…it’s a pop and upbeat song, and is a song about methamphetamine addiction…very explicit lyrics…great to write a paper or essay about
It’s not quite ‘rock’, but it is one of the best songs about drugs :~
‘Needle of Death’ ~ Bert Jansch

A really good song would be:
Black Baloon by the Goo Goo Dolls
It is about a heroin addict, it has a powerful meaning behind it, it is a beuatiful song, check out its meaning, just check the song out its really good 🙂
Hope it helps!
I think it’s called When it bleeds or something like that by Metallica. Of course I guess you have to be a recovering addict to really appreciate home much it hits home. 3 years 6 mo. 21 days sober.
Sorry, “Until it Sleeps”
Here’s a link

I’ve never heard a song that quite captures the pain of addiction the way this one does.
Guys Like You Make Us Look Bad by blessthefall
its about like pretty much trying to forget about how he raped a girl
e.g.
You scream don’t look, you scream don’t touch
What have they done? What have I not?
And every time I think about your voice I
Start to tremble, and my throats aching
And anytime you need a shoulder, I’m right here
You’ve just gotta find a way.
Away-.
She sits alone, tries to adjust
She cries please let me go I won’t tell anyone
You scream don’t look, oh please god don’t touch
You scream don’t look, you scream don’t touch
What have they done? What have I not?
And every time I think about your voice I
Start to tremble, and my throats aching
And anytime you need a shoulder, I’m right here
You’ve just gotta find a way.
Away-.
Oh god please help us, get her out of this
Oh god please help us, get her out of this
Oh god
Oh god

Dreaming comes so easily
Cause it’s all that I’ve known
True love is a fairytale
I’m damaged, so how would I know?
I’m scared and I’m alone
I’m shamed and I need for you to know
I didn’t say all the things that I wanted to say
And you can’t take back what you’ve taken away
Cause I feel you, I feel you near me
I didn’t say all the things that I wanted to say
And you can’t take back what you’ve taken away
Cause I feel you, I feel you near me
Healing comes so painfully
And it chills to the bone
Won’t let anyone get close to me
I’m damaged, as I’m sure you know
I’m scared and I’m alone
I’m shamed and I need for you to know
I didn’t say all the things that I wanted to say
And you can’t take back what you’ve taken away
Cause I feel you, I feel you near me
I didn’t say all the things that I wanted to say
And you can’t take back what you’ve taken away
Cause I feel you, I feel you near me
There’s only for my soul
And undo this fear
Forgiveness for a man
Who was stronger
I was just a little girl
But I can’t look back
I didn’t say all the things that I wanted to say
And you can’t take back what you’ve taken away
Cause I feel you, I feel you near me
I didn’t say all the things that I wanted to say
And you can’t take back what you’ve taken away
Cause I feel you, I feel you near me
Can’t go back…
Can’t go back…
Can’t go back…
Can’t go back…
I can’t go back…
I can’t go back…
I can’t go back..
I must go on…
I must go on…
I must go on…
I must go on…
I must go on…
I must go on…
I must go on….

Luka – Suzanne Vega

The needle and the damage done, by neil young
The best song ever, about using.
The band “Sick Puppies” are one of my favorite bands, but some of their lyrics are seriously morbid. Here are a few.
Howard’s Tale (about either abuse or drugs. Can’t tell myself. Fantastic bassline either way.)
Pitiful (about how his life is so bad that he is driven to take drugs as an escape)
The Bottom (I’m not sure, but I’m begging to suspect this song may be about cannibalism)
There are more, but these are just off the top of my head.
Everybody’s fool by Evanescence (about how she hates herself and how fake she is)
Tourniquet by Evanescence (about how she tries to kill herself)
Who Knew by P!nk (sounds upbeat, but is about a friend dyeing. I think.)
Welcome to my life by Simple Plan (about how no one understands how bad he feels)
Tragedy by Brandi Carlile (no idea but it is sad.)
hope this helps
