| Lady GaGa – Dope Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
This song is about addiction and romance. At the beginning of the song it is apparent some unfortunate events had taken place between the singer and their romantic partner. Lady Gaga bears great remorse for her leaving and begins to sing why. At the time she had a love for both her self destructive behavior and her lover but ultimately hurt her partner because she couldn't let her addiction go. She sings many times "I need you more than dope" to express the brevity of how much she really needs her partner, that even though she used her "dope" in excess to the point of tearing their relationship apart. One should also be aware of the lyric "I'm sorry and I love you" and how bare it is sung. In many songs love and remorse are worded sweetly to appeal to the listener but in Lady Gaga's case, it is sung so plainly that it could never possibly be misunderstood how much she cares and how much she loves her partner. The "Dope" in the song could be a literally drug like heroin but it could also be any other vice like self destructive behavior, revenge, gambling, etc. To my knowledge this song is not about any specific event from Lady Gaga's life or any addiction she may or may not have. |
