One Shot Of Whiskey

Ron Pope

Transposer:

Intro: (x2) Verse At a bar in a town that I sure won’t remember. Next time September will show her cruel face I will race to the bottle of every glass   And I hope that these drinks have a shot at replacing The things that I lost on the way that I took to this place        So give me one shot of whiskey      Two lines of cocaine          And tell everyone who I love that I’m sorry but I’m built this way And if you see my brother          Please tell him I’m fine           Promise I’m trying to get home for Christmas Though I’m not sure quite why Mercy me oh my god I’m afraid that I’m losing my mind Verse It was hard it was dark I was starved for attention I was seeking redemption or a face that I know If there’s one thing I’ve learned as I pass through the seasons To not "what you reap what you sow" It’s that get what you give if you’re lucky but mostly you don’t. So give me one shot of whiskey      Two lines of cocaine          And tell everyone who I love that I’m sorry but I’m built this way And if you see my brother          Please tell him I’m fine           Promise I’m trying to get home for Christmas Though I’m not sure quite why Mercy me oh my god I’m afraid that I’m losing my mind Outro Mercy me oh my god I’m afraid that I’m losing my mind Mercy me oh my god I’m afraid that I’m losing my mind

La chanson évoque un homme perdu dans ses addictions, cherchant à échapper à ses douleurs et à ses regrets à travers l'alcool et la drogue. Il s'excuse auprès de ses proches, tout en essayant de trouver un sens à son parcours, même s'il est conscient de ses démons. Son désir de retrouver sa famille pour Noël se heurte à une profonde confusion sur sa condition et sa quête de rédemption. Le contexte de cette histoire est celui d'une lutte contre les dépendances, où le protagoniste semble tiraillé entre ses choix destructeurs et un besoin de connexion humaine. La mention de sa volonté de rentrer chez lui révèle une aspiration à la chaleur familiale, malgré son état mental fragile.
