Cover art for The Pills Won't Help You Now lyrics by Chemical Brothers, The

it seems that this song is about a drug addiction as noted before, but this leaves me confused. the chemical brothers have several songs about drugs, including this, lost in the k-hole, and the test. but it seems this song is more like an anti-drug stance because "the pills won't help you now" but the others seem to be promoting the experience. can anybody explain this?

@metalupyour455 I think the Chems don't enforce drug use per se, but they are in favour of freedom. It means that drugs can be a good tool for entertainment but they are not the answer to any problem, especially depression.
