SAINT VITUS LYRICS
"Thirsty And Miserable" (1987 EP)
1. Thirsty and Miserable 2. Look Behind You 3. The End of the End
1. Thirsty and Miserable
Thirsty and miserable
You drop to the floor
You drink 'til you can't
See any more
Thirsty and miserable
Always wanting more
Thirsty and miserable
Always wanting more
My brother wants a ride
To the liquor store
You pitty him for what
He wants it for
Thirsty and miserable
Always wanting more
Thirsty and miserable
Always wanting more
It 's 1:30 and we 're
Getting nervous
Because the store closes at two
And there 's not enough
To last us all, oh fuck!
Thirsty and miserable
Always wanting more
Thirsty and miserable
Always wanting more
2. Look Behind You
Foggy morning drifting 'round you
Blackened haze
You can't see past your trembling hand
Pounding footsteps right behind you
Every day
Shadows from an empty man
Look behind you
Echoed screaming in your ears
Constantly
Reaching for your loaded gun
Ringing in forbidden fears
Suddenly
Look behind you as you run
Look behind you
Turn the corner, dead-end street, you can't go on
What are you gonna do?
By yourself right from the start
You live in doubt
Everything was all dreamed up by you
Look behind you
Look behind you
Look behind you
3. The End of the End
Don't tell me about your problems
I don't want to hear
You brought them upon yourself
I don't want to hear
You thought nuclear war was
The right thing to do
Now you 've brought armies of mutants
Upon me and you
You give me excuses that make no sense
I don't want to hear
You know my feelings, you can't understand
I can't make it clear
Take a good look at the world
That you destroyed
This is what we get because you played
With lives, like toys
Once upon a time, when everything was green
The Earth was pure and happy and everything was clean
Then along came man, he trashed and spoiled it all
And now he wonders why, why is he going to fall
Now you 're sorry, now you 're crying
I don't want to hear
Ask for salvation, nobody listens
They don't want to hear
You have started the end of the end
You 've done your bit
The rest of us are leaving now
You live with it
