As another one falls apart I regret the day I burnt those bridges Destroying my way to get away Destroying my way back home Another one that didn’t work And now I’m left with nothing more Than the rubble that was left over That which I have caused Relationships fall apart This I know far too well All I want is one to work But instead I burn bridges Good times run afoul Now that I have risen up Make my mark upon this life Burn that bridge to the ground Love but only one time works The lack of results far too great All I want is to come back to you But I’ve already burnt that bridge Now I’m left with empty shells That I must share with myself Bricks that lay along the ground But bridges, they won’t build Now I lay on my lonely land With no way in or out Because I’ve burnt those bridges Home with you I’ll never see

Burning Bridges
As another one falls apart I regret the day I burnt those bridges Destroying my way to get away Destroying my way back home Another one that didn’t work And now I’m left with nothing more Than the rubble that was left over That which I have caused Relationships fall apart This I know far too well All I want is one to work But instead I burn bridges Good times run afoul Now that I have risen up Make my mark upon this life Burn that bridge to the ground Love but only one time works The lack of results far too great All I want is to come back to you But I’ve already burnt that bridge Now I’m left with empty shells That I must share with myself Bricks that lay along the ground But bridges, they won’t build Now I lay on my lonely land With no way in or out Because I’ve burnt those bridges Home with you I’ll never see
Hope you enjoy
