Coca Cola Vigil
Wedding ring and a hard hat
That was all that Christine got back
From the pile of woodchips
They found Paul
It wasn't even the summer yet
It was a gig to get back on track
Overnight
At the trash burn plant
He wasn't taught how to stand on dust
The cops told her the lights had gone bust
They said m'am
Can you hear me m'am?
She says she'll just keep driving
Driving down the canyon
She says that she's tried talking
And sure sometimes it helps
Gotta try to give 'em something
Try to get yourself remembered
Got a Coca-Cola vigil
Try to give 'em
Hell
Every morning she's parked outside
Truck windows all taped with signs
In green sharpie
It says safety
But all the workers can do is nod
It's just a gig to get on and off
No m'am
You wanna talk to the boss
They put ash in the orchard dirt
They put grief in a stiff old shirt
But I believe
What I believe
She says she'll just keep driving
Driving down the canyon
She says that she's been talking
And sure sometimes it helps
Gotta try to give 'em something
Try to get yourself remembered
Got a Coca-Cola vigil
Try to give 'em
Hell
There was someone that Paul called Cuz
He had a couple dogs he loved
They had a place
Above the lake
That was all that Christine got back
From the pile of woodchips
They found Paul
It wasn't even the summer yet
It was a gig to get back on track
Overnight
At the trash burn plant
He wasn't taught how to stand on dust
The cops told her the lights had gone bust
They said m'am
Can you hear me m'am?
She says she'll just keep driving
Driving down the canyon
She says that she's tried talking
And sure sometimes it helps
Gotta try to give 'em something
Try to get yourself remembered
Got a Coca-Cola vigil
Try to give 'em
Hell
Every morning she's parked outside
Truck windows all taped with signs
In green sharpie
It says safety
But all the workers can do is nod
It's just a gig to get on and off
No m'am
You wanna talk to the boss
They put ash in the orchard dirt
They put grief in a stiff old shirt
But I believe
What I believe
She says she'll just keep driving
Driving down the canyon
She says that she's been talking
And sure sometimes it helps
Gotta try to give 'em something
Try to get yourself remembered
Got a Coca-Cola vigil
Try to give 'em
Hell
There was someone that Paul called Cuz
He had a couple dogs he loved
They had a place
Above the lake
