Lost in the archives DEVILS EYE CONTACT

I think you were right
Giving you the benefit of doubt 
Busted and out of luck tonight
Expected me to be found by now
I'm still off on that distant cloud
Wearing my leather jacket, walking proud
Passed that convenient store, to take another look
Searching for all answers, in the jungle book

If you stare at something long enough
You just might get it 
Pretend it didn't happen
Just maybe you'll forget it 

All day she sells faces for Mary Kay
Building up a dream
Scraping by another day
At night she works in the checkout line
Smile's hello, buying time
We try to be ordinary
Cause bets are sure to be a fool's game
Hearts get robbed, point fingers to blame

If you stare at something long enough
You just might get it 
Now pretend  it didn't happen
Pray baby, you'll forget it 

So when you feel the rain, it's me
The water got too heavy to hold
And if it's snowing, you'll know I've gone cold
Every time that domestic dog barks, the storm is coming
The leash holds him back, from a place he shouldn't be running 
To a place where strays never come back
Where a blind man loses his soul to the devils eye contact

When Love Walks Away

If love was meant to last, why does it fade,
Leaving behind memories, shattered and afraid?
