The Chambers & The Valves

Two young hearts will meet in the middle,

And a light will flicker on, where there once was none.

Where does love come from?

The bodies in the firmament are spinning like a plate;

I was lost in the fission before you came.

I could write this down, I could turn this car around.

In the land of mistakes I should lay my crosses down.

And I pray for your health, and I tell myself

“It’s the chambers and the valves that pump the sentiment around.”

But I swallow the words and I close my mouth.

If every constellation above us has a counterpart below,

How are we to know, dear? How are we to know?

Fortune hangs around us like a funerary wreath.

I was down in the heart of the ground beneath.

I could write this down, I could turn this car around.

In the land of mistakes I should lay my crosses down.

And I pray for your health, and I tell myself

“It’s the chambers and the valves that pump the sentiment around.”

But I swallow the words and I close my mouth.

I could write this down, I could turn this car around.

In the land of mistakes I should lay my crosses down.

And I pray for your health, and I tell myself

“It’s the chambers and the valves that pump the sentiment around.”

But I swallow the words and I close my mouth.
