Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.
Love is my drug, is my medicine
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me
Love is my drug, is my heroin
When you are feeling tired
I'll lay there with you
When you get up early in the morning
I'll get up with you
If you have a craving
I'll get it for you
If you wanna take a ride all by yourself
I'll be waiting for you
Love is my drug, is my medicine
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me
Love is my drug, she's my heroin
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me
When you feeling fired up
I'll fire with you
If you had to lie a little
I'll let it be true
When you get low I'll, get lower than you
When you've had enough of had it
much more than you knew
Love is my drug, is my medicine
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me
Love is my drug, she's my heroin
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me
Love is my drug, is my heroin
When you are feeling tired
I'll lay there with you
When you get up early in the morning
I'll get up with you
If you have a craving
I'll get it for you
If you wanna take a ride all by yourself
I'll be waiting for you
Love is my drug, is my medicine
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me
Love is my drug, she's my heroin
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me
When you feeling fired up
I'll fire with you
If you had to lie a little
I'll let it be true
When you get low I'll, get lower than you
When you've had enough of had it
much more than you knew
Love is my drug, is my medicine
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me
Love is my drug, she's my heroin
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me
Stay with me honey, stay with me honey, stay with me

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.

In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
