Burning Bridges Songtext
von Benjamin Taylor

This is an emergency
We shot down in the dark
We did it just to pay the fee
Now there′s nothing to die for
And all the kids from miles around
Are fools in paradise
Don't know about the siren sound
So the scene is an eyesore

Coming back into our way
Chaos gave me strength enough to face another day
All I think about if I was just a runaway
Is would I come back to love you, girl


I don′t really care 'cause I'm burning some bridges
We don′t need no water, let ′em burn to the ground
Some might fear, some of them are superstitious
But my ear is to the ground
And I walk the streets down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Alright, alright, so

I'm just a man who′s walking
They stand around and keep talking
They tried to clip my wings
But wisdom cures so many things
Sing it again
I'm just a man who′s walking

They stand around and keep talking
They tried to clip my wings
But wisdom cures so many things
For love, love, oh love, yeah
Love, love

I don't really care ′cause I'm burning some bridges
We don't need no water, let ′em burn to the ground
Some might fear, some of them are superstitious
But my ear is to the ground
And I walk the streets down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Yeah, down, down, down, down
Hey, right, down, down, down, down


Now ain′t it funny how life goes on?
First you ride high, then you might lay low
Don't get high on your own supply
Someone say first before a fall comes pride
This is my message to the world
I wanna reach every boy and girl
Not trying to say if it′s right or wrong
It's just a love song

I don′t wanna change the world (I don't wanna change the world)
I only want to stop pretending (It′s just a love song)
Nothing left to do but let it burn

I only hope we're all ascending (Somehow)

Well, I don't really care if I′m burning some bridges
We don′t need no water, let 'em burn to the ground
Some might fear, some of them are superstitious
But my ear is to the ground

And I walk the streets down, down
I don′t really care if I'm burning some bridges
We don′t need no water, let 'em burn to the ground
Some might fear, some of them are superstitious
But my ear is to the ground
And I walk the streets down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down

(Change the world)
(Down, down, down, down)
(I only wanna stop pretending)

This is my message to the world
Just trying to reach every boy and girl
Not trying to say if it′s right or wrong
This is just a love song
