Lyrics

Bridges

[Verse 1]

Remember the days you said you'd never leave me? Where'd they go?

I've been lying to myself to keep me from thinking what I know

[Chorus]

You're not coming back, and you never were

And I should've asked why you left me at my worst

[Verse 2]

I've been trying to pick myself up off the floor

But I don't even know which one hurt more

My bloody knees or the way you took my pleas

And just pointed to the door

Don't try and make me feel guilty

I know you needed time to think about me

I'm moving forward

I'm overwhelmed with feeling awkward

[Chorus]

You're not coming back, and you never were

And I should've asked why you left me at my worst

And I always hoped for more than this

Well you never mentioned that your heart's of stone

And you kiss with a fist

[Bridge]

One year's come and gone now you're still dragging me down

All the shit that you put me through don't

Mean a thing till you're drunk at 2 AM

So let it go 'cause you'll never know

How much of me I gave to you

You should've asked about the bridges that you burned

Bridges that you burned

I think I'm moving forward now

I think I'm moving forward now

I should've asked about the bridges that you burned

I should've asked about the bridges that you burned

[Outro]

If I'm honest, I never wanted

Your ghost hanging over me

Get a grip, I'm sick of this

But thankful that you burnt away that bridge
