about

A few vignettes of people we've known.

lyrics

He always found a way to stay up everyday.
How we never saw it coming (I don't know)
St. Paul from yesteryears grew up just east of here,
Spent all his time outside of his head.

But it caught up to him, had to turn himself in,
They strung him up and told him boy,

You've got that evil look in your eyes
Saved for that certain lust for life
And when you finally get too high,
You can't lay your body down at the end of the day

Though we met just recently I sure fancy Tiffany
Is she coming back this way again? (I don't know)
She'll dance and get frisky, trade love for straight whiskey
Might even make it to her bed

But when its time to leave, she'll shoot that look at me
I'll always turn to her and say,

You've got that evil look in your eyes
Saved for that certain lust for life
And when you finally get too high,
You can't lay your body down at the end of the day

*Interlude*
In the evening we will sing of all these songs.
How their stories fill the hole we call our souls.
But theres a tent man with puppet hands
Whose telling me I'm not his friend
I wonder if he shares this evil gaze...

And now some time has gone and days ain't quiet so long
Have you found a way to fill them? (I don't know)
This ticking of the clocks seems like a paradox,
What are we really counting for?

Just make the most of it, find out what makes you tick.
Don't bother when you hear them shot,

You've got that evil look in your eyes
Saved for that certain lust for life
And though you don't really know whats right,
I can't expect that you would think twice.

I've got that evil look in my eye
And now its just a matter of time
Before we finally get too high
And we lay our bodies down at the end of the day
