Fed up of excuses
There’s nothing more to say
Sands of your patience have surely drained away
Backed into a corner built of my design
Peer into the future entwined is yours and mine
I know it
Nah nah nah nah nah
Although we realise it
I hope it’s not too late
Beggin’ all the pardons please don’t lock the gate
A spider’s web was woven full of much deceit
I know you re exhausted too much to repeat
I know this can’t go on if things remain the same
Drastic change is needed, it’s driving me insane
Nah nah nah nah nah
I’m too embarrassed to look you in the eye
You stuck your neck out, gosh at least a thousand times
There’s no more courage just to ask the reason why
Why, why, why?
Talking about a real thing, talking about a real thing
Nah nah nah nah nah
There’s nothing more to say
Sands of your patience have surely drained away
Backed into a corner built of my design
Peer into the future entwined is yours and mine
I know it
I hope it’s not too late
Beggin’ all the pardons please don’t lock the gate
A spider’s web was woven full of much deceit
I know you re exhausted too much to repeat
I know this can’t go on if things remain the same
Drastic change is needed, it’s driving me insane
You stuck your neck out, gosh at least a thousand times
There’s no more courage just to ask the reason why
Why, why, why?
Talking about a real thing, talking about a real thing

I think it's about Ian wanting change and everyone is stuck in this 'spiders web of deceit". His future being entwined with someone else means he needs their help for change, and he's lost his patience for people who can't ask the simple question why.
Lyrics are bout his troubled relationship with John Squire . Nice acoustic tune
