Lyrics
The Black Ashes Of A Bridge To Tomorrow
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
This bridge is falling out from under me and I can't seem to separate
The differences between the sides and what they mean.
Decide which one is safe for me.
I'm thinking, (You're not)
This is it, (It's not)
I'll die or go back from where I came.
It's safer, (Go back)
If I make it, (Give up)
Fear gravity.
Look away,
so I feel safe and you can stay.
Step back to see
the gap between us widening.
This is my life.
The sun is blinding and right on top of me
And I can't support the weight.
And you won't get away.
(It's safer, it's not.)
Unless you stand by me.
(If I make it, it's not.)
Please stand.Please rise. Please come save me.
(Fear gravity)
Look away,
so I feel safe and you can stay.
Step back to see
the gap between us widening.
Look away,(I said look away)
so I feel safe and you can stay.
Step back to see (Step back to see)
the gap between us widening.
This is my right.
Burn
Burn My eyes, this music, and my dreams.
My hands shiver from loss of blood tonight.
Suture my wounds and pray for my life.
My hands shiver from loss of blood tonight.
Suture my wounds and pray for my life.
But I won't die.
It's not my time.
I will fight for my dreams tonight.
(Then this night will end. The sun will rise again.)
I won't let you win
Or steal my love for this.
It will end.
And the sun
Will rise again.
