Methadone saved my life. I can now work in my chosen field (Computer Security), without having to chase dealers down all day and risking arrest. I'm no longer dope sick (no highs, no lows. I'm stable.). I'm slowly lowering my dose to get off, but if I can't get off, then I'd rather live a good lifestyle on Methadone than a bad one off of it. It's logical and reasonable. The only line in this song to support an anti-methadone stance is "but it's just another high", and then they go on to say "stop covering up the truth" and "stop acting like she's stupid" (people are so ignorant about methadone, because of it's portrayal in the media to a large part). The reason she's doing better is because she's on Methadone, a harm reduction therapy (like condoms and needle exchanges).. she gets a clean dose of something that keeps her well all day.. no dirty needles, shooting up god knows what into your veins, committing crimes to get money for your fix. If you ask me, other countries are way ahead of us in harm reduction therapy when treating opiate addiction.
