No Picture Hobson Average	#1 by Hobson at Oct 22, 1974 at 11:57 AM EST
	Anthony relapsed after 6 years of being sober. He went to the dentist to get some teeth pulled and the dentist made a mistake and had to give anthony a shot. Anthony immediately scored some drugs afterwards and has struggled ever since. He wrote this song because he hadn't told anyone about his relapse and addiction, and the shame was killing him.

No Picture Devon Average	#2 by Devon Thauriaux at Mar 8, 1975 at 2:39 AM EST
	the video for this song if fucking retarded

No Picture sp00ky_child Average	#3 by sp00ky_child at Jan 15, 1979 at 3:40 AM EST
	i think its bout drugs cuz he "decends all the way" meaning coming down from his high, and this sums it up: Night craving Sends me crawling Beg for mercy oh Does it show A vacancy That’s full of holes Hold me please I’m feeling cold

No Picture NeMeSiS Average	#4 by NeMeSiS TraSh TeSt at Oct 18, 1999 at 10:01 AM EST
	I absolutely love this song! Anyway, I always believed it was about getting high, but i tend to pay more attention to the music as well as the lyrics. I think that the "warped" beginning of the song is representative of being sober, but struggling to overcome the need to do drugs. The lyrics make it seem like the person doesnt really wanna do drugs. The Middle of the song goes all crazy heavy metal whatever, I take that as basically the dude is stoned as hell. Just my 2 cents. I didn't read AK's book (Scar Tissue???), so i am probably completely off.

No Picture Dan Average	#5 by Dan Johnson at Oct 19, 2001 at 7:09 AM EST
	you can not hear the lyrics at all, great song though. Love the Bass line. Video to this is soo dodgey, its funny

No Picture Smellson Wanna Be	#6 by Smellson at Mar 29, 2002 at 5:36 PM EST
	The songs about ak's drug addiction, how it affects him and about hiding it from everyone. It had nothing to do with John or Hillel. It's all in his book, which everyone should read, by the way.

No Picture Scott Wanna Be	#7 by Scott Michel at Oct 11, 2003 at 4:30 PM EST
	flea said that anthony for the first time he realize that he is not a strong man, and felt sad. i think that could be bout drugs.

No Picture sam Wanna Be	#8 by sam smith at Jul 11, 2005 at 8:36 AM EST

No Picture Sean Average	#9 by Sean Robinson at Oct 2, 2006 at 12:06 PM EST
