lyrics
you wait in line to misrepresent yourself
you think this tension will just fade away
like candle light it's flame will keep us warm tonight
this bridge is burning down at both ends
you said you would
does that make a difference now?
you said you could
but I just don't see how
it's just not the same at all
do you remember when you didn't have to scream to be heard?
have you lost faith in your words?
where will you stand?
with hands raised to the sky or live a life of compromise?
this picture is fading in the fire
your satellites pinpoint a secret fear
of all of your castles turning back to sand
like candle light this flame will keep us warm tonight
this bridge is burning down again
