Fuel system question

TTT is right.
The fuel system will bleed down eventually.
I believe the FSM has a spec on which the system should hold pressure for X amount of minutes after the engine (i.e. fuel pump) is off.
It's not going to hold system pressure indefinitely.

Ok, thanks guys. Based on the last time I cracked open a fuel line after forgeting to depressurize the system first, I was expecting to get a high-octane bath, but I think in that case the car was only run <1 hour prior. Was obviously relived I didn't get the fuel bath this time!
