on the sunday after the mason dance it�s the one day I can remember when I felt so pure and really at peace with myself I was in love, the sun sang down victorious but the truth is I have no faith in happiness it turns to fear, draws the devils near so I jumped the fence and went out west abilene got a sales job as a pharmaceutical rep lived out of hotels, rental cars and a stowable bag I drove all day � from hospital pacing and clinic sweats I drove all night � I couldn�t ever sleep now anyway I tried, but the old devils, they found me in my room I hid under the covers and cried out as they tore off my sheets so I went east vietnam I�m long gone I�m up the river way past mekong but the old devils, they found me in my hut they poured through the windows, they cornered me and I cried out, to no one: �I give up.� Aus Songtexte Mania
