Cocaine
Nomy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You are in pain
Take your life, take your life with cocaine
But I am who I am
So I do what I can, when I can
But I can't really do a damn thing

So fine this day
All your problems has gone away
But tomorrow, when you wake up
All your problems are back to stay

Your life, a game
Turn it up, turn it up with cocaine
And every time that you live is a time when you feel
And the only time you heal

Tell me what it is
And it would never be like this
A problem that we have in common
Baby tell me what it is
It probably doesn't mean a piss
Yeah, rip my heart apart

Now it's too late, too late to live
Only heaven loves you now
So love it back for once
Just once

Now it's too late, too late to live
And my conscience killing me
So I'm alive
But I'm not free

And for all of you that can relate to this too
And for all of you that can relate to this too

White snow
I know
You're on a place where I just can't go
But I hope you do remember
Your snow doesn't warm you in December

You are in pain
Take your life, take your life with cocaine
But I am who I am
So I do what I can, when I can
But I can't really do a damn thing

Now it's too late, too late to live
Only heaven loves you now
So love it back for once
Just once

Now it's too late, too late to live
And my conscience killing me
So I'm alive
But I'm not free

And for all of you that can relate to this too
And for all of you that can relate to this too

Tell me what it is
And it would never be like this
A problem that we have in common
Baby tell me what it is
It probably doesn't mean a piss
Yeah, rip my heart apart

You are in vain
Take your life, take your life with cocaine
But I am who I am
So I do what I can, when I can
But I can't really do a damn thing

Now it's too late, too late to live
Only heaven loves you now
So love it back for once
Just once

Now it's too late, too late to live
And my conscience killing me
So I'm alive
But I'm not free

And for all of you that can relate to this too
And for all of you that can relate to this too

Overall Meaning

Nomy's song "Cocaine" is a poignant portrayal of the despair and hopelessness that can come with addiction. The lyrics delve into the inner turmoil of someone who is addicted to cocaine, and the struggle to find a way out. The opening lines, "You are in pain, take your life, take your life with cocaine" highlight the desperation and hopelessness that can drive someone to use substances to escape their problems. The following lines, "But I am who I am, so I do what I can, when I can, but I can't really do a damn thing" suggest a sense of resignation and helplessness.


The song further explores the transient nature of the relief that drugs provide. The lines "So fine this day, all your problems have gone away, but tomorrow, when you wake up, all your problems are back to stay" capture the fleeting euphoria that is quickly replaced with the overwhelming emotional pain of addiction. The repeated refrain "Now it's too late, too late to live, only heaven loves you now, so love it back for once, just once" speaks to the sense of isolation and loneliness that can come with addiction.


The song also touches on the toll that addiction takes on the people around the person who is addicted. The lines "And for all of you that can relate to this too, and for all of you that can relate to this too" suggest a plea for understanding and empathy from those who may not understand the struggle of addiction. Overall, Nomy's "Cocaine" is a poignant and deeply emotional portrayal of addiction and the struggle to find hope and healing.
