DON’T WANT TO LIVE INSIDE MYSELF (B. Gibb)
I am the searcher of my fortune
I’ve got my right hand on the wheel
We’ve got to dig for buried treasure
I know exactly how I feel
Don’t want to live inside myself
I’m much better off alone
But then, you must believe in the falling rain
Don’t want to live inside myself
I went walking through the graveyard
Where the darkness is my friend
I heard all about the beginning
I want to see just where it ends
Don’t want to live inside myself
I’m much better off alone
But then, you must believe in the falling rain
Don’t want to live inside myself
I have met the jaded tiger
And every tiger knows my name
But just as long as I can see my face
I can tell myself my name
Don’t want to live inside myself
I’m much better off alone
But then, you must believe in the falling rain
Don’t want to live inside myself

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!! smiledozer
