People Like Me
Awake and Intoxicated: Embracing the Chaos of Existence
Lyrics
Thank god there are people like me,
Expressing gratitude for people who share similar experiences or perspectives.
People like me who relate when i drink,
Highlighting a connection with others who can relate to drinking.
And i know i am drunk but at least I'm awake,
Acknowledging being drunk but valuing the state of wakefulness.
That's more than i can say for some.
Noting that being awake is more than some can say.
Wide awake still at noon from last nights disaster,
Describing being wide awake at noon due to the previous night's disaster.
Stole a beer from my neighbor when i could have just asked her

I walked faster and faster away
Walking away quickly, possibly to avoid confrontation or consequences.

Wrecked my car at the start of labor day weekend, oh lord

Threw my weed in a ditch at the bottom of the median

With my heart beating

Riding on a day old drunk.
Reflecting on the continuation of being drunk into the next day.
At night lying awake
Depicting insomnia, worrying about something said the day before.
Dreading something that i might have said yesterday
Expressing anxiety about potential words spoken in the past.
With my heart beating
Reiterating the intense feelings while being day-old drunk.
Riding out a day old drunk
Echoing the experience of enduring the aftermath of day-old drunkenness.
Thank god there are people like me,
Repeating gratitude for those who share similar experiences or perspectives.
People like me who relate when i drink,
Reaffirming a connection with others who can relate to drinking.
And i know i am drunk but at least I'm awake,
