OZZY OSBOURNE

- Junkie Lyrics

You're coming down badly, you're crippled inside
A rat in your sewer, you've no place to hide
A gut wrenching fever, addicted to death
You don't give a f*ck if it means your last breath

You try so hard to quit but you'll never admit
You're the junkie
There's no reasoning why 'cause the mirror don't lie
You're the junkie

You crave for the needle to stick in your vein
Can't wait for the poison to kill all the pain
You buy your cheap ticket to take a short ride
That beautiful flower is eating your mind

You try so hard to quit but you'll never admit
You're the junkie
There's no reasoning why 'cause the mirror don't lie
You're the junkie

Your name means nothing
You don't know the score
Body is aching, you still crave for more
Sometimes, you wish that you'd never been born
Tormenting came with a crown full of thorns

You're chasing the dragon, you're chasing the high
A bird with one wing who's still trying to fly
You're all out of spirit, a dead man alive
A born again junkie, you'll never survive

You try so hard to quit but you'll never admit
You're the junkie
There's no reasoning why 'cause the mirror don't lie
You're the junkie

What is the meaning behind Junkie lyrics?


When we consider what the writer meant by those haunting lines, Ozzy Osbourne's song 'Junkie' depicts the addiction battles, using metaphors like chasing the dragon and being a born again junkie to illustrate the cigarette of dependency and the hopelessness of defeating it. The words describe the addiction very destructively and the addiction is seen as a very heavy burden in terms of physical and mental health which eventually leads to a very dark and hopeless life. The lyrics of Junkie mostly focus on emotions like angst, despair, reflection, solitude and social commentary. Other than that, they express the same idea as the song does that is the importance of addiction along with struggle, despair and hopelessness as well as self-identity and denial. The lyrics deal with drug addiction, self-destructive behavior, and the use of explicit language which are characterized as adult material. The allusions to drug use and the consequent hardships are very strong and continuous which justify the need for a non-allowed rating.
