The Bridge

[Verse 1]

On the bridge made of stone

Stands a man all alone

The bridge was his motivation

It worked him to the bone

[Verse 2]

With every nail that he drove

It drove him farther from his own

He's punishing isolation

But the bridge just feels like home

(Home, home, home)

[Verse 3]

She didn't feel quite the same

She despised the bridge and who he became

She left in devastation

She left him there in shame

[Verse 4]

He said, "I don't understand

This is not part of your plan"

But it got lost in the translation

Like a castle made of sand

Oh, a castle made of sand

[Chorus]

In all the years he's spent struggling

He's been haunted at every turn

He fights the fear as he's growing old

And remembers in all that he's learned that we build and burn

(Burn, burn, burn)

Burn

[Post-Chorus]

I got some if you need it

[Verse 5]

Here I am all alone

On that bridge made of stone

We've got smothering motivation

I've been working to the bone

[Verse 6]

In the end it's what I've known

It's what I hate, but I have to show

The bridge is my dedication

The bridge just feels like home

Yeah, the bridge just feels like home, yeah, yeah

[Chorus]

In all the years I've been struggling

I've been haunted at every turn

I fight the fear as I'm growing old

And try to remember all that I've learned that we build and burn

[Chorus]

All the years he's been struggling

He's been haunted at every turn

(That we build and burn)

He fights the fear as he's growing old

Remind us in all that he's learned that we build and burn

(Burn, burn, burn)

[Post-Chorus]

I've got some if you need it
