I think it's funny how I know exactly what this song is saying. It's about going a meeting and becoming "sober", they call it your "birthday" (your sober date). Then it says that the same person he first saw there called him one night because she had relapsed or something to that effect, and she drove all night to him and she declared she would be sober again. And she said that she was glad her addiction didn't kill her before he came along. So if you want to be with me With these things there's no telling We'll just have to wait and see But I'd rather be working for a paycheck Than waiting to win the lottery This is saying that being with "me" would be a struggle with these things "staying clean/sober" there's no telling, you take it day by day. But its better to be getting days upon days, then to be using and hoping one day you'll stop (chances are like winning the lottery).. |

oh and this too I needed you tonight but I just couldn't wait I was loaded but my hands just aren't that steady But I'm not that brave... I'm just not that brave... he wanted her to come over because he felt like doin dope. and she took to long or whatever, and he went for it. but his hands werent steady enough to hit a vein. and again, he wasnt that brave. |

it's not about suicide. I was loaded and the hammer was ready I'm just not that brave... he's talking about a shot. of dope. when a shots full it's "loaded" and there's a "hammer" on the syringe that pushes the dope into the vein. he says he's just not that brave. meaning he doesnt wanna go down that road again eventhough he's been hurt by this girl the same way he was when he used to do it |
