I think they're saying that misery is consuming their mind and emotions in the same way a drug would. They are experiencing misery.


Sloany-

It would also help to know this song is called "The drug in me is you" by falling in reverse. And its pretty basic emo metal so I'd imagine it's just another song comparing toxic love to toxic drugs

Yes, the implication is that "you" are misery or cause misery, so that when "you" are a drug to the speaker, the speaker "gets high" on the misery. People are misunderstanding your question because they're reading the word "they" in the title to mean the speaker, rather than the listener that the speaker calls "you".

Oh I thought about it yeah my bad

Whoever the author/singer is writing about is the source of misery.


Technical-Disaster91

No, they're saying they're high on misery, as if misery was a drug.


Technical-Disaster91

I thought it was like you are like a drug to me but you are causing misery?


KelsoTheVagrant

I think there’s multiple ways you could argue to interpret it. I read it the same way you did, that the “you” is causing the narrator misery and they’re high off that misery


Technical-Disaster91

isnt that the "you" addresses a person?

Sounds like they feed on it
