This song reminded me of the existence of drug-addicted babies. Imagine being born and having withdrawal at such a tiny age, screaming and illness fill the hospital because you were BORN with drug addiction and there is nothing the people around can do to help. They can't give you what you're addicted to, they just have to stand and watch while your tiny body attempts to battle the absence. Because you really don't know what you want but it's something that you feel like you can't live without- and you don't know how to help yourself. It's actually something that really hits me hard.

Mitski revealed the meaning of this song in an interview she said, "Happiness fucks you. Happiness is up, sadness is down, but one’s almost more destructive than the other. When you realize you can’t have one without the other, it’s possible to spend periods of happiness just waiting for that other wave."

[fishiefish]

CRACK BABY YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOU WANT BUT YOU KNOW THAT YOU HAD IT. ONCE AND YOU KNOW THAT YOU WANT IT BACK

[gabby]

As a baby who was born addicted, this song means the world to me.
Doctor’s had to slowly get me off the drugs I was born dependent to, otherwise my body wouldn’t have been able to live through the withdrawals.
As a baby, I stayed in the hospital for over 6 months.
They saved me, but I’m developmentally disabled.
There is no cure.
Thank you for raising awareness to this

[coco]

the thing i like about mitski is that sometimes it feels like she crawled into my brain and wrote a song about everything she saw in there

[uhhhhmaddi]

I lived with drug addict parents. Witnessed them get high and choose drugs over me several times. That's what this song reminds me of, the love I wasn't getting that I now can't accept. Wild horses running through my bones to me means watching as I destroy everything around me. I needed this song.

[cheesetlc]

Listening to this song BLASTING it while in my bedroom and drawing my Oc’s. its a respectable mood

[imstillnewatthis]

I’ll try my best in my analysis.

I think this song interprets no matter what you try you’re always going to be feeling that something is missing in your life. “It’s been a long hard twenty year summer vacation, all these twenty years trying to fill the void.” Even when you’re in a supposed” vacation” resting, at peace, there’s something missing, a void. So you search and search for that thing to fill that void and finally found something, crack. Whether your interpret it literally or interpret it as something else, it sends an extreme emotion onto your body. “Wild horses running through your hallow bones.” It’s like this thing, or crack, has made you felt like there are literal running horses on your empty bones, tingling you, making it feel like it’s filled up that hollow bone-like filling up a void. But after all those running horses pass, it doesn’t get filled up, so you try again and again, wanting to fill that void.

But…you still can’t pin point something that you want: “crack baby you don’t know what you want, but you know you had it once and you know that you want it back.” You think that this crack is the thing that’s missing, you try it again, thinking it’ll finally fill the void, but it doesn’t give you that sensation that you felt when you first try it..so now you’re trapped in an addiction yearning for that same sensation, but you don’t know what you want, you never did, so you go back to it again, and again, and again..so after all that trying and repeating, no matter what you do, you still feel like there’s something missing.

[GthBug]

This song feels like finding comfort in your low points. Even when you get better you still feel something is off, because all you knew for years was this hollowing sadness. And you know it’ll come back. You know your high point won’t last long, and you almost yearn for the sadness again. You’ve been in it for so long that it’s comforting. That weight on your chest isn’t suffocating anymore, it’s a weighted blanket of warmth. But when you hit your low, you find yourself desperately reaching out for help. It’s a vicious cycle

[abigfishinabarrenswamp]

thinking about how my body was filled with toxins while it was being made. thinking about how so many more babies will be born just like me now, after roe is overturned.
broken, disabled in ways for life, seeing people swim while i drown in all directions.
and with no real mom or dad to help them.
because they’re in ultimate service to the toxins that they flooded their kids in the womb with.
thinking about if i will make it.
if i will ever learn how to swim in the direction i want.
thinking about all the pain. this song could be a metaphor for some,
but for me it is wholly literal. for me i know this is just sad truth i face in every problem i carry on my back.

[TacoHemingway.]

Everyone has their own interpretation of this song, but this song makes me think of the fact that I've felt like I can't fit in anywhere since I have been a child. No matter how much I've tried I don't feel like I fit in often. It's weird but I think that people view me as the most useless human being ever. I just want to fit in. I don't even feel like I fit in some friendgroup I have.

[mellohi]

What I think this song is about:
"All these twenty years tryin too fill the void", the person in the song trying too fill the emptiness of their emotions, "crack baby, you don't know what you want but you know you had it once, and you know that you want it back, crack baby you don't know what you want, but you know your needing it, and you know that you need it bad.." - to feel something, love possibly? Or happiness, something they hadn't had in so long since they lost it. "Wild horses running through your hollow Bones." - "wild horses" could be their thoughts hurting them and breaking them down too the point of y'know.., " went into your room thinking maybe you'll feel something, but all I saw was your burning body waiting. " - the singer entering the person's room and seeing their body.

So I think this is about someone loosing something, going through horrible things, and committing no no life.. BUT THAT'S MY THEORY

[rainwatering]

crack baby will always be one of my favorite mitski songs

[ravenace]

I dont know about anybody else and maybe I'm 100% wrong, but this song reminds me of how when I was a kid, i always felt so much love from everyone. These days, all of those people are still here, but it doesnt feel genuine anymore. I cant laugh and have fun with my mom anymore. I cant have ice cream for breakfast with my dad while my mom pretends to be oblivious anymore. I cant go hang out with my friends at school everyday, hell, Im lucky to hear from some of them once a week. My best friend barely even texts me once a month. Im constantly seeing pictures of when i could do all of those things and its just a reminder that i can't have that anymore. Its all arguments and messages left on read. And i cant say anything about it or theyll feel hurt like its an accusation. Its not, i just want to feel like i did back then, even if i dont remember how it felt because I didnt pay attention and took it for granted.

[maiktxx]

To me this song feels like being born with addiction in your blood. Addicted to drugs the moment you were born, inheriting it and there was nothing you could do to prevent. And a baby has no idea what drugs even are, but they are having withdrawals and cravings for it as soon as they're in the world.

[cleo]

i’d like to imagine this song from a heartbroken addicts point of view, since whenever i was dealing with heartbreak and addiction at the same time this was the only song i would relate and cry to.

take the beginning lyrics “down empty streets sniffing glue me and you, blank open eyes watch the moon flowers bloom”
-i take these lyrics as past tense of the now ex lovers being on a bender together

the lyrics “all these twenty years trying to fill the void”
-represents trying to fill the void of your darkest thoughts with drugs

“crack baby you don’t know what you want, but you know that you had it once and you know that you want it back”
-saying that your so deep in addiction that there’s no going back, but you always think about how you you want to go back and turn things around and be clean but it’s already to late.

“with wild horses running through your hollow bones”
-representing drug use/ being on drugs and feeling like it’s too late and the feeling of defeat .

“went to your room thinking maybe you’ll feel something, but all I saw was your body burning waiting”
-i took this as coming into your room to use, but only to see your now ex lover cheating, packing up to leave, ect.


again i only based the meaning of this theory on personal experiences that i dealt with to make the song relate to the problems i was facing at the time, i’m not saying that this is the real meaning, but it’s a cool meaning to think about.

[gothixmnz]

This song makes me cry uncontrollably every time I hear it. I used to be heavily addicted to drugs when I was younger because I had chronic pain and the drugs helped numb me to the pain, but when my eldest brother and sister-in-law had their kids, I knew I had to stop because I wanted to be there for them and maybe even my own kids down the line...

[yalazu]

Cette chanson c’est la recherche du bonheur. On a tous gouté à l’innocence en étant enfant puis on est tombé dans la spirale de la vie. Cette sensation de vouloir retrouver un effet similaire qui arrangerait tout. C’est incurable comme une addiction tu cherches un moyen d’oublier l’existence en compensant par les schémas que tu as appris au fur et à mesure de ton existence. Tu te forces à rentrer dans le moule mais ces pensées ne disparaissent pas, tu abandonnes rêves, espoirs et tu perds dans cet entre vide ou t’aimerais recommencer ta vie, renaître et regoûter comme la première fois à l’innocence puis il y a avancer, changer et devenir quelqu’un malgré tout.

[Miu-vwqz]

I couldn't really understand what this song meant when I first heard it, but now I do, especially "went to your room thinking maybe you'll feel something, but all I saw was your burning body waiting".when I'm busy I feel like this bitterness would go away if vacation came, and when it does, it makes me feel emptier still, and I think I'll get better if I were busier, and the same cycle of repetition, I take breaks, bury myself by working hard, get tired, burnt out, try to get refreshed....nothing works...when I'm around people, I feel like being alone would feel better, when I'm alone, I think being with people would feel better....today, I woke up thinking, if sleep was supposed to make you feel refreshed, why do I feel so agitated? Then I realised, I had tried everything, and would blame anything and myself, but never someone. When I'm living my healthiest, 8 hours rest, regular exercise, bath, nap, prayer, I'm bitter, when I'm getting less sleep, not napping, not exercising, I'm bitter. I have a much better environment than a lot, but I just can't...or maybe the environment is bad and I can't understand, or I'm whining. Either way, I know I'll never be the same happy, person I was 3 years

Absolutely love this imagery and thanks for making this
