as long as people are still posting in this thread a full two decades on, I'll   
   say that the meaning of chasing the dragon is definitely when you smoke a   
   drug, be it heroin or opium or freebase cocaine, on a surface such as a sheet   
   of tin foil (or as    
   someone said before a piece of metal) by heating it underneath and inhaling   
   the vapors through a straw. Since with opium and heroin the substance will   
   pool as it gets hot, what you do is you tilt the foil to slide it back and   
   forth on there, and it will    
   make a trail of smoke that you follow while holding the straw in your mouth.   
   This is chasing the dragon. So most of you were right inadvertently.     
      
   But any way I think that a lot of the Dan's songs are about heroin.
