verse2: weird effect thing based around verse chords followed by a repeat
of the verse riff.
Chorus 2 is the same but ends abruptly on the last hit to seque
into Whatever's Left.
the chorus is right - you just need to listen to it very carefully.
A short but great song from an essential album.

| I would guess, it's called Gleamin Auction as a symbology to those who take their old, worn down, beaten "crap" and try to make a buck or two out of. Hence saying, It's total worth can't possibly be spent yet. Or, It sucks, it's pretty much usless to me, but here maybe it would suit you for awhile. ... We take all our trash, all the things we don't want and put a dollar sign on it trying to get rid of the things in our life that we dont want anymore. | |

| Hmm - he is in a relationship where his feelings are being trampled on. Or, like coroar says, he was in a relationship where he felt that way. Now the main question I have about this song is the title: Why is it called "Gleaming Auction"? | |
