| I believe that the song is about an alcoholic that once had probably had fun going out with friends to get drunk, however this person would not be able to stop drinking and go home for the night like his "so-called friends". They might be referred to as "so-called" because the alcoholic is most likely drinking to excess in order to "get away" from painful memories from the past and if they were actually true friends who cared, then they would try to help this person with their blatant alcohol abuse by talking to them about their problems instead of leaving them to get even more plastered and most likely be put into an even more hellish state because they would end up hammered, alone. The latter part of the lyrics would have to do with not being able and/or not wanting to even bother trying to function in a public setting and are more comfortable drinking by themselves, and they have probably also lost touch with their friends that they used to drink with socially. I can relate on an addiction level, doesn't really matter whether it's alcohol, drugs, or any other addiction. | |
