Drunk Lyrics

I wanna be drunk when I wake up
On the right side of the wrong bed
And every excuse I made up
Tell you the truth -
I hate what didn't kill me
It never made me stronger at all
Love will scar your make-up
Lips stick to me
So now I'll maybe...

   I think it's about friends "shall we keep it between friends" and the two had a moment of romance after drinking but it couldn't go on and he feels perhapse there is a chance of it happening again if he keeps drinking however deep down he knows it in vain

   I think it means that him and this girl once had a stable relationship but he started drinking and now they're kinda friends with benefits cause she leaves him every evening and she doesn't love him anymore so he gets drunk so he tricks his mind to think she really loves him. And he regrets it because all he really wants is for her to love him again.

   Have you guys even heard the lyrics? He's talking about a drug addiction. "I'll watch you fizzle at the bottom of a coke can", "I've got no plans for the weekend, so should we speak then, keep it between friends", "burns don't heal like before", "there may be other people like us, will see the flicker of the clipper when they light our flames". Also should be taken in context with his other songs and his knowledge of drugs.

   I think it is about a person, who has lost something thet really love, so that's why they get drunk. Because they want to try to forget about it. Pretending they have forgotten about it, but deep down, they still really love them. Well, that's what I think anyway. :)

   Clearly about a crack addict? Are you on crack yourself? The song means what it means. Obviously a broken hearted man who has turned to drinking plain and simple.

   Cleary about an ex crack addiction
   
   To feel a little love
   I wanna hold your heart
   In both hands
   I'll watch it fizzle
   At the bottom of a Coke can
   And I've got no plans for the weekend
   So shall we speak then
   Keep it between friends
   Though I know you'll never love me
   Like you used to
   
   Without you to hold I'll be freezing
   Can't rely on my heart to beat it
   Cos you take part of it every evening
   Take words out of my mouth
   Just from breathing
   Replace with phrases
   Like when you're leaving me

   An alcoholic that can't stop drinking and she does everything to make him stop and threatens to leave if he doesn't change. He drinks so he can pretend they're back in love and avoid the truth but he knows deep down that its not the reality.
