You have the meaning wrong. It's not about drugs or what drug use has done to someone, or those around them. The song is about relationships, and the speaker in the song is struggling with someone He loves, who does not love him back. This love makes him feel addicted to her the way a drugie is addicted to drugs. The part about a kiss with open eyes, simbolizes how the one he loves shows no intrest in him, and is not breathing back the same feelings that he shows for her.. He is telling himself that he can not let it bother him, but infact it does. The false sence of accomplishment is when he thinks he is over her, the way a drug addict is over their addiction, but then something happens that makes him come back to his obsession. See the simbolism between drug use and love? it's there.

I love this song too, but can I suggest a correction to the lyrics posted above. To me, it sounds like: "It's a lie, A kiss with opened eyes And she's not breathing back Anything but bother me (It takes my pain away) Nevermind, these are horrid times Oh, oh, oh I can't let it bother me" should read: "...Nevermind, these are hurried times Oh, oh, oh I can't let it bother me" It's like the speed, busyness and complexity of the narrator's life are being used as an excuse, and they are temporarily dismissing their fears... Not letting it bother them. I'd welcome anyone else's thoughts?

These lyrics are pretty self explanatory... He broke up with his girl and he's become addicted to these "white pills" to try and cope.. thats where the "takes my pain away" comes from. amazing song

Well...what i thought when i saw the video... He is doing all this stuff to hurt himself. Holding his breath underwater, falling down stairs, runnin into a plate-glass window. Maybe he doin this so he has some pain to take away. A reason for this "girl" to comfort him.

My bad, he mentioned that "Bleed American" was during a time in his life when he was dealing with panic attacks
