Name: Bridges Burned
Duration: P00H03M26S
Description: This is one of the only songs that survived the Anderdown "rift"; that is, the change in direction after Ronnie's accident and the consolidation of the band. Ronnie wrote this about an obsessive ex-girlfriend, and it remains one of my favorite songs lyrically. We didn't always perform this one, but when we did, we made sure to bring it.

This is one of the only songs that survived the Anderdown "rift"; that is, the change in direction after Ronnie's accident and the consolidation of the band. Ronnie wrote this about an obsessive ex-girlfriend, and it remains one of my favorite songs lyrically. We didn't always perform this one, but when we did, we made sure to bring it.

lyrics

You came into my life
Through an awkward situation
Damaged goods, no broken home
But still a cracked foundation
Wearing masks, telling lies
To yourself and friends
Never seeing all the time
The means don't meet the ends
And I thought that I'd gotten through
To the core and heart of you
But one step forward, two steps back
Is all you would ever do
And I would stand out on a ledge
Reaching for your hand
And watch as you would light a match
And burn away our plans

You had your chance
You burned that bridge
Too many times to fix
You broke my heart
Gave me a scar
Where you were
That won't heal
All those times
I thought that you were mine
You were only your own
You had your chance
You burned that bridge
So just leave me alone

From time to time
It seems that you want back into my life
When times get hard, you get bored
Or you lay down at night
Leaving hints to try to say
The words you never could
Seeing now you've thrown away
Something you never should
So pack it up, leave me be
I'm trying to move along
And given time, I'm sure you'll find
Someone else to do wrong
When you listen to this song
Consider it a match
To burn away the bridge you built
To climb out of the past
