My Drug Buddy Lyrics
She's coming over, we'll go out walking,
Make a call on the way.
She's in the phone booth now, I'm looking in.
There comes a smile on her face.
There's still some of the same stuff we got yesterday.
There's still some of the same stuff we got yesterday, yeah.
I'm too much with myself, I wanna be someone else.
I'm too much with myself, I wanna be someone else.
I'm too much with myself, I wanna be someone else.
So we take off out Fiona's door,
Walk until it's light outside,
Like before when we were on the phone.
We have to laugh to look at each other.
We have to laugh 'cause we're not alone.
As the cars fly up King St.
It's enough to startle us,
It's enough to startle us
I love my drug buddy.
My drug, my drug buddy.
I love my drug buddy.
My drug, my drug buddy.
Make a call on the way.
There comes a smile on her face.
There's still some of the same stuff we got yesterday, yeah.
I'm too much with myself, I wanna be someone else.
I'm too much with myself, I wanna be someone else.
Walk until it's light outside,
Like before when we were on the phone.
We have to laugh 'cause we're not alone.
It's enough to startle us,
It's enough to startle us
My drug, my drug buddy.
I love my drug buddy.
My drug, my drug buddy.

haha, self explanatory to say the least. any way this reminds me of being 22 years old and hanging out with the younger girls down at the coffee shop. even though we weren't doing drugs that sense of intimacy that you can get without being in love with someone feels real. i don't even know if that emotion is even real. maybe its just a good song and i want to connect it to someone. its a great song none the less.
This describes the situation I'm in vividly. I love this guy who smokes pot with me. He has a girlfriend though, It's the feeling of being in love with a person you do drugs with.
I don't think it's about being in love. I think it's about the intimacy you create with a person you share lots of high moments with. It's a special bond, but it's a relationship based on drug use.

That makes sense as well. Love is chemically-driven and drugs definitely can give highs similar to being in love. It could also be about a really close friendship with someone and mutually bonding over drugs.

I think the song is about a friendship you have with someone only because uou both do drugs. People are social creatures, it makes it easier to deal when uou aren't alone.
"She's coming over, We'll go out walking, Make a call on the way"
This narrates the plan for the evening.
"She's in the phone booth now, I'm looking in. There comes a smile on her face."
I think the phone booth is their place to get high, its not where they live. He's watching her through the glass where she can't be clocked as she shoots heroin (maybe some form of coke).the smile on her face comes when the high hits.
"There's still some of the same stuff we got yesterday. There's still some of the same stuff we got yesterday, Yeah."
They still have some dope left over from the last time they got high.
"I'm too much with myself, I wanna be someone else. I'm too much with myself, I wanna be someone else. I'm too much with myself, I wanna be someone else."
Addicts hate things about themselves especially being an addict, the choices they have made tmand things they have done to others but using provides an escape that ironically, often, is only needed because of using to begin with.
"So we take off out Fiona's door, Walk until it's light outside, Like before when we were on the phone"
They wonder aimlessly the the rest of the night, until morning. With each ohlther as companion
"We have to laugh to look at each other. We have to laugh 'cause we're not alone"
What i get from this line is they reallt don't have much to say to each other, the speratic chuckles here in there is the only time they really make eye contact with each other. But they are still happy to not be alone in their situation.
"As the cars fly up King St. It's enough to startle us, It's enough to startle us"
The cars whizzing by startles them as they are walking.
"I love my drug buddy. My drug, my drug buddy. I love my drug buddy. My drug, my drug buddy."
For me this is a proclamation that is bothet literal (not in a romantic sense) and sarcasti/deprecating way.
