The Bridge is on Fire

what is it with pride
biting your nose just never works
your face is still the same
and that's a shame
the ones who touch your heart
should be the ones you touch
even if they don't touch you
the way you want them to
there was something special
about them that found their way
into your heart
into your soul
and it is still there …

so I am trying to rebuild
the bridges I have burned
all the time I have wasted
all the love I have tasted
before my time has left the building
just like Elvis

turn down the lights, turn down the noise playing in my head !
