lyrics
Hold me by the wrists I'm all but finished,
Tell me I was good and let me go.
Begin the slow revival of tomorrow,
Cull the crumbling forests that we sowed.
Deal me every card I’m gonna need there,
And burn the bridge that I may not return,
Leave me with a pitcher of that good stuff,
Dress me down should I begin to turn.
And at the severing, the closing of an execution stay,
Is hard luck anodyne, Is hard luck anodyne.
Close your mouth, and listen up,
Ain’t nobody leaves alive, and maybe that’s the reason why
Only God believes in love, and we’re giving up.
I’m sorry I’ve had so much wine, but seeing as it’s closing time,
We’ll put this world to rights.
Teach me all the words I thought beyond me,
Look away should I proceed to err.
Lock me in a room with vestal virgins
That I may vanquish woes I learned from her.
And as the hurt begins, when all the pretty moments die away,
With hard luck anodyne, hard luck anodyne.
Close your mouth, and listen up,
Ain’t nobody leaves alive, and maybe that’s the reason why
Only God believes in love, and we’re giving up.
I’m sorry I’ve had so much wine, but hey before it’s closing time,
We’ll put this world to rights.
