The awesome opening credit roll to the Wilco documentary "I Am Trying To Break Your Heart", with the accompanying acoustic version of the song. Come on, tell me it wouldn't be cool to drive around...

This song is awesome...

In my opinion, this song has absolutely no meaning, it's heavy on style but intentionally doesn't have any content.

Sort of like when you're whispering sweet nothings to a girl and promising her the world when you're really just looking to screw. You recite poetry and sew together beautiful soliloquies but in the end:

"But still I'd be lying if I said it wasn't easy
I am trying to break your heart"

The lyrics make sense, it's a poem.

I don't think it really serves the song to be searching for a specific meaning in each turn of phrase. Jeff has mentioned in interviews that he enjoys finding words that sound good or cool together and putting them in a song, even if they don't make sense.

Can't believe you guys are fighting on a Tweedy song. Just enjoy it, man. And if you can't or don't enjoy it, watch something you do enjoy.
