Bridges

I waived the white flag, I gave all I had

I'd even given up on love itself

Soaked by my tears, I was choked by my fears

Just a stubborn man too proud to ask for help

You don't know those words you said

Were the ones that pulled me from the edge

Oh, I used to walk on bridges with one thing on my mind

Do I wanna live or do I wanna die?

Staring at the waters while trying to decide

Between the pain that I've been living with or the pain I'd leave behind

Or the demons I've been fighting or the angels by my side

Yeah-hey, yeah-hey

The scars on my skin

They don't even begin to show the darkest places that I've been

The water is rising behind my eyes and only you can see the thoughts I'm drowning in

I wanna thank you for those words you said

'Cause they pulled me right back from the edge

Oh, I used to walk on bridges with one thing on my mind

Do I wanna live or do I wanna die?

Staring at the waters while trying to decide

Between the pain that I've been living with or the pain I'd leave behind

Or the demons I've been fighting or the angels by my side

Hey-hey, yeah-hey

Ooh, ooh-ooh

Oh, I used to walk on bridges with one thing on my mind

But now I walk on bridges to reach the other side
