Close Every Valve To Your Bleeding Heart Songtext / Lyric

Always thought I was a novelty little creature,

Nobody warns you that the death of hope won't feature

Any sort of big event

To mark its significance



After we finish ourselves off, we ain't leaving

it's good to go down with an old friend believing

You better bet, we're gonna tie one on tonight

You never left even though you'd said that you might

I come back here to remember what it was like

Only Dostoevsky would dream up a pair like us.






Thick-skinned, hard-headed, better off

You're closing every valve to your bleeding heart

Does it hurt too much?

Are you just fed up?

Or is it something else entirely?



When I ask you why you reply

The death of hope hit you hard too

You better bet, we're gonna tie one on tonight

You never left even though you'd said that you might

I come back here to remember what it was like

Only Dostoevsky could kill off a pair like us



You better bet, we're gonna drown every doubt

the half of us that's got the other half figured out

No good deed goes unpunished around here



You better bet, we're gonna tie one on tonight

You never left even though you'd said that you might



I come back here to remember what we were like
