venus rising

do you know what you're doing

now that he's gone you're all alone

except for the band

few hundred friends

that paid to attend

is it because venus is rising

burnin' a hole in your heart

you're having such a hard time deciding

and you don't know how to stop

the whiskey and applause

just another way

to get lost

cause you don't want to remember

when you used to treat him better

when you used to treat him better

if you could learn

how to play that guitar

you sure could go far

cause when you sing

you sure know how

to break a heart

you sure know how

to break a heart

is it because venus is rising

burnin' a hole in your heart

you're havin' such a hard time deciding

you don't know how to stop

the whiskey and applause

just another way to get lost

cause you don't want to remember

when you used to treat him better

when you used to treat him better

if you could learn

how to play that guitar

you sure could go far

cause when you sing

you sure know how

to break a heart

you sure know how

to break a heart

is it because venus is rising

burnin' a hole in your heart
