This one's Hirayama
He's working at the bar
He brings me my old fashioneds
And it's not very far
Till my room number's a codeword for the weather in Saigon
And I tried to keep it upright for the times that it's required
But the line that lies in between the truth and self-regard
Is finer than ever
And to my right's Minori
Or so she says tonight
And I just might be Ferdinand and try to make things right
For tomorrow's just another day that I've yet to regret
I put to feet to walking before my muscles set
For the road that runs from the sea to where I'm supposed to be
Is longer than ever
And you know Miyamoto
He seems like a nice guy
He swears to heaven up and down that I gave him the eye
And tomorrow he takes a slow train till the snow's up to the sky
And he tries to read the right words and keep it all inside
But the gap between the world that's true and the world that's made of hype
Is wider than ever
Aliens done put me down in a world of mirrors
And when they're not clouded up, they're reflecting all my fears
And if I don't pack it up tonight, it all will end in tears
I haven't felt like we've been up against it all in years
For the love I felt since way back when and want again and again
Is stronger than ever
Is stronger than ever
Is stronger than ever
