This is a song about wrestling with depression and addiction. This is not autobiographical but I’ve have friends and relatives who have struggled with this.

Lyrics
I DON’T KNOW WHO I AM by Tim Dowling
Have you ever fallen down a deep, dark hole,
Where pain and the dark took you body and soul,
Have you ever fallen down a deep, dark hole,
Penny for your thoughts, nickel for your prayers,
Quarter if you’re talkin to the Man upstairs,
Dollar if he tells ya anyone really cares.
Chorus:
I don’t know where I’m goin’.
I can’t say where I’ve been.
I’m tired to the bone,
I’m three sheets to the wind,
I don’t know where I’m goin’.
I just don’t understand,
I’ve lived a month of Sundays,
I don’t know who I am.
Have you ever reached up for the hand of a friend?
Like a lifeline tethered to a rock at the end.
Have you ever reached up for the hand of a friend?
Twelve steps runnin’ on a heavy treadmill.
Like Sisyphus pusin’ his rock up a hill,
Till it rolls back down and crushes his will.
Chorus:
I don’t know where I’m goin’.
I can’t say where I’ve been.
I’m tired to the bone,
I’m three sheets to the wind,
I don’t know where I’m goin’.
I just don’t understand,
I’ve lived a month of Sundays,
I don’t know who I am.
Here is the dark in the dead of the night,
Pull my shade to the pale moonlight,
Here is the dark in the dead of the night,
Too many roads I shouldn’t have roamed,
Too many seeds I shouldn’t have sown,
Too many sins for me to atone.
Chorus:
I don’t know where I’m goin’.
I can’t say where I’ve been.
I’m tired to the bone,
I’m three sheets to the wind,
I don’t know where I’m goin’.
I just don’t understand,
I’ve lived a month of Sundays,
I don’t know who I am.
Outro:
Have you ever fallen down a deep, dark hole,
Where pain and the dark took you body and soul,
Have you ever fallen down a deep, dark hole,
