Do It Again
Robyn; Röyksopp Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

One more time
Let's do it again
Blow my mind
Do it again

And then it arrives
The moment before
The anticipation
You know it's like mmm
Wait for it
Wait for the buildup
And then let's do it again

We do what we want
And as soon as it's done
We just do it again
Let's do it all
And when we come down
We just do it again

Don't care what they say
It hurts so good
I don't wanna stop
I know I should
(But let's do it again)

One more time
Let's do it again
The thing you did
Do it again

And when it arrives
The moment before
The anticipation
You know it's like mmm
Wait for it
Wait for the buildup
And then let's do it again

We do what we want
And as soon as it's done
We just do it again
Let's do it all
And when we come down
We just do it again

Don't care what they say
It hurts so good
I don't wanna stop
I know I should

We should not be friends
We'll just do it again
If you stay around
We'll just do it again

We should not be friends
We'll just do it again
If you stay around
We'll just do it again

Let's do it again
Don't care what they say
It hurts so good
It hurts so good, mmm
I don't wanna stop
I know I should
But let's do it again
Again

+maly3900 How long have you been using? As someone who was addicted for seven years (got loads prescribed to me for a serious Crohn's Disease flareup), it starts off great, and ends up being quite stressful and anxiety producing, IMO. I would never go back to daily use.

LOL morphine for me was... meh.

Oxycodone / Oxycontin was the best prescription opiate I ever took, but also the most addictive. Seriously, my brain would just scream, "Oxy! Oxy! Oxy!" all. day. long. Tolerance built way too fast, though, and I went from 40 mg / time with a nice high to 120 mg / time with little effects within a few months of daily use.

Got switched up to massive doses of hydromorphone / Dilaudid (100 mg / day) for my Crohn's, and found it stronger in terms of pain relief and "nodding", but less euphoric and less addictive than oxycodone by far.

I've been off methadone for almost two years now, and mostly opioid-clean, except for the occasional Tramadol binge (which does very little for me - I seem to be mostly unaffected by it), and more recently, a fucking AWESOME week long bingefest of U-47700, which is probably the best opioid that I have ever taken by far.

(I am not the type of person that thinks "once an addict, always an addict", so I don't view these as slips or setbacks. I have been addicted to a few things, but after getting over the addiction and taking a few years off, have always been able to come back to them with a clear head and use them in moderation without getting readdicted.)

Oh! One more thing: I HIGHLY suggest, if you want to keep your tolerance low and help stop / slow down addiction, that you consider taking low doses of DXM (say, 60 mg) an hour or so before your opiates. (DXM aka dextromethorphan is the active ingredient in most cough medications, and is a powerful dissociative anaesthetic like ketamine at higher doses.) Also, if you DO find yourself addicted, DXM is an awesome helper to control withdrawals and break the addiction, as it works rather like ibogaine in the brain. I cold-turkey quit 20 mg of methadone a day, which most methadone maintenance therapy patients say would make them wish for death, and had virtually no withdrawal except for a bit of cold sweats and a little unhappiness. That was almost certainly because I was taking around 500 - 600 mg of DXM / day (a decently strong and very psychoactive dose).

Sorry for the rambles... just thought I'd share my experiences :-).
