cocaine is a “bad” drug. However, there is a lot to be said about cocaine. Cocaine has been in use for a long time and has both benefits and disadvantages. What exactly is cocaine? The molecule for cocaine is C17H21NO4 and it is a very powerful stimulant (What is Cocaine, Drugs.com, 2014).

It has been a year since he has been squatting in forsaken structures. This day, he was stupefied from his most recent binge of either a stimulant or depressant lying around, and woke up to rubbish slowly engulfing the ground. It looked the same as it had before, but somehow different like “the ace bandage of anxiety and misery I wore around my chest wasn’t there after 15 years” [1]. Zimmern…

eighties had glamorized cocaine use. The core members of the band, having performed throughout that period, released this song to serve as a deterrent.

except now, the musician adds, “An angel will die / Covered in white / Closed eye / And hoping for a better life” (Lines 45-49). In this part of the lyrics, the woman’s dreadful end is hinted taking into account that most abusers of similar illegal stimulants eventually overdose.
