Lyrics

Dirty Little Heart

Another night, another year that's gone

Raise your glass, I'm not home tonight

Nothing's changed but everything is different

Getting cold in the bus stop light

All the days, all the times we spent

Making plans for another life

Staring out of a back seat window

Making cuts with a plastic knife

This dirty heart

Still longs to beat

Back in your arms

Back on your street

These open wounds you gave me

These broken bones will take me

Crawling on through the debris of my

Dirty little heart

Another flag stone, I don't belong

An empty glass still not home tonight

I look for change but only finding difference

I'm growing old in the glare of the spot light

All those nights, all these hearts I've haunted

All the memories we shared

I wonder if this will ever be different

I wonder if we will ever be spared

This dirty heart

Still longs to beat

Back in your arms

Back on your street

These open wounds you gave me

These broken bones will take me

Crawling on through the debris of my

Dirty little

These open wounds you gave me

These broken bones will take me

Crawling on through the debris of my

Dirty little heart

This dirty heart

Still longs to beat

Back in your arms

Back on your street

These open wounds you gave me

These broken bones will take me

Crawling on through the debris of my

Dirty, dirty

These open wounds you gave me

These broken bones will take me

Crawling on through the debris of my

Dirty little heart
