Sauchiehall St. I don’t believe we’ve ever talked about it like this before Conversations ablate or are only half-cocked until we say nothing at all In the City of Dreaming Spires we’d be without the sleep a taxing tour requires Devotion took us anywhere, mind you Now your yearnings have impaired I long, I long to play along for a song So what could possibly go wrong? Farther north we had this altercation standing in the rain outside on Sauchiehall St. You began your late-night transformation Driving you away, I heard your bleat - You know who I admire But I’ll never be the guy who knows what you aspire I guess it counts for both of us: Intoxicating things and wanderlust I long, I wanna string along into your song So what the hell is wrong?

Hard To Talk To So if they’d say that I’m hard to talk to Let me show you This picture of me To the easel, I'll walk you And tell some truths, too Maybe I look like a soundless and poor idling mime At dad's house cuz I’ve been evicted like twice in my time I’ve got to tell you cuz I want you to be mine (Intermezzo) How do I look, you know that I get stoned, too? And I have no clue How to break free, I never even broke through Yet, I wanna know you Last night I couldn’t even care about all that I’ve lost A sad show today, babe Well, but my fingers are crossed Last night I couldn’t even care about all that I’ve lost (Intermezzo) Situated, allocated, by haters hated, overrated Uneducated, isolated, godforsaken but consecrated Animated, complicated, tolerated, momma paid it Hard to say it and explain it, I’m belated, never made it Desecrate it and replace it I’m gonna play it the way I play it I’ll create this self-portrait cuz all I do is really just trying to be me

Forever Whatever No voice will reverberate forever Nobody's passing on together For the future I'll be holding on to "Whatever" I won't get fooled into "It's now or never"
