Lyrics:

Verse
I don’t remember
I can’t recall
If you were with me or there at all
Just a few friends brought together to let go
My memory fails me
It’s all a blur
What I was doing or where you were
They gave me whiskey
I swear that’s all I know

Verse
I don’t get foolish
I don’t get mean
I end up somewhere in between
It’s just a feeling you have to know to understand
So don’t condemn me or condescend
You can befriend me or just pretend
They gave me whiskey
I swear it wasn’t planned

Verse
From down below me
I hear a cry
From up above me
A question why
Here in the middle
We struggle daily to remain
I’m not an idol carved out of stone
I’m just a man made of flesh and bone
They gave me whiskey
Oh why must I explain
