Lyrics
I was down and out
I experienced a low point in my life.
In hallway passing out
I passed out in a hallway due to the effects of alcohol and nicotine.
From alcohol and nicotin
Reflecting on the impact of alcohol and nicotine on my well-being.
You stayed up all night
You stayed awake throughout the night.
Wondering where the hell I've been
You were concerned about my whereabouts and well-being.
Wondering where the hell I've been
Reiteration of the worry about my absence.
Find a reason why
Searching for a purpose or explanation for living a life focused on seeking medication.
I live my life looking for medicine
I spend my nights searching for a remedy.
I stay up all night
Continuation of the restless nights pondering my whereabouts.
Wondering where the hell I've been
Reiteration of the concern about my absence and whereabouts.
Wondering where the hell I've been
Repeated worry about my absence.
I was falling down
I was physically deteriorating, unable to stand on my own.
My legs couldn't carry me
My legs were no longer able to support me.
No longer carry me
Emphasis on the inability of my legs to carry me.
You let me have my time
You allowed me the time and space near the bathroom sink.
Next to the bathroom sink
Specific location near the bathroom sink, suggesting a place for reflection or healing.
Next to the bathroom sink
Reiteration of the importance of the bathroom sink in the narrative.
and you gave me all you had
You provided me with everything you had.
It's been a long long time
Considerable time has passed since a positive change or improvement in my condition.
I can't remember how long since my body could stand me
Uncertainty about the duration since my body has been in a state I can tolerate.
I hope that in time
A hope for improvement in the future.
Before too long I can be somebody else than me
Desire to transform into a different, healthier version of myself.
You gave me all you had
Reiteration of the selfless giving of everything you had.
