Dead On Arrival
Legion Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No-one could understand
Each night he'd go out shooting skag
Met a pusher who sold him a bag
That's why he was...
Dead on arrival
Ran out of money so he stole a car
Tried to run but didn't get far Sent to prison, no turning back
Saw his arm, weaned him off smack
That's why he was...
Dead on arrival
Solo - Pagès
Out on parole tried to keep calm
Finally died with a needle in his arm
Yes out on parole, tried to keep calm
Finally died with a needle in his arm
That's why he was...
Dead on arrival
The lyrics of Legion's song "Dead on Arrival" tell a grim story of a man who was consumed by drug addiction. The tracks in his arm, which made him a man, were a symbol of his addiction and dependency on heroin. He was unable to find any understanding or compassion from those around him, and so he turned to shooting skag, or heroin, each night in an attempt to numb the pain of his existence.
One day, he met a pusher who sold him a bag that proved to be fatal. He died on arrival, having overdosed on the heroin he had purchased. He had stolen a car to afford the drugs, and was sentenced to prison as a result. While incarcerated, he was weaned off the drug, but upon being released on parole, he relapsed and ultimately died with a needle still in his arm.
