And I hate the taste, it lacks in substance

Do you know that it's been raining around here now

Or do you care that it's been lonely for me

And I can't write half as well as I used to

Is that because I've been drinking

And I craft my words

It won't matter to you what I try to do

You're always gonna be on your own
