I'm standing on a bridge
that should be burning down
but it just won't fall
no it just won't move at all
And every part of me
wants to let it go
and I know I should
and I wish I could but I
I'm still wrestling with a question
that I don't wanna ask
and I already know the answer
you're not coming back
Chorus:
And that's the truth
that's hard to learn
it's nothing new
but that don't stop the hurt
oh and all this time
just can't be worth the tears, the pain you gave me
my whole heart is crying baby burn, burn, burn
People come and go
but some they never leave
and an ember stays
in a heart they've changed for good
and life keeps going on
but doesn't take you with
till you're standing back
in a frozen past, well I
I keep fighting all the reasons
I should be moving on
'cuz I'm not ready to believe that
you're gone
Chorus:
And that's the truth
that's hard to learn
it's nothing new
but that don't stop the hurt
oh and all this time
just can't be worth the tears, the pain you gave me
my whole heart is crying baby burn, burn, burn
Baby burn
I don't want, I don't want to cry for you baby;
I don't want, I don't want to cry for you baby;
I don't want, I don't want to cry for you baby;
I don't want, I don't want to cry for you baby;
Most people cross in and out of our lives, staying for awhile and then fading into past times and places. But there are some who leave fragments of themselves, haunting us like ghosts. When the void is so unbearable that each new day is just as painful as the last, we'd do almost anything to let them go. Fighting it, forcing it out, and burning it down, sometimes our whole being cries out for relief.
