Burning Bridges

Seeing yourself in a broken mirror Looking at what you've become You lash out at those you love Screaming things that can't be undone You're a victim of your own mistakes And you look for someone else to blame Your whole world lies in pieces 'cause you can't take the strain You're burning bridges You're burning bridges You're burning bridges You're burning bridges Like a spoilt child you stamp your feet Firing out vile abuse You take so much and give so little Never thinking of what you might lose You offer another olive branch Demand someone to free your chains But there are no apologies Expecting others to put out the flames You're burning bridges - And you're fanning the flames You're burning bridges - And you're fanning the flames You're burning bridges - And you're fanning the flames You're burning bridges - And you're fanning the flames You try to escape the daily grind And run away from your pain Trying to dry your eyes In the pouring rain You wonder why you're pushed away By those you call your friends And as they turn their back on you You wish you could make amends You're burning bridges - And you're fanning the flames You're burning bridges - And you're fanning the flames You're burning bridges - And you're fanning the flames You're burning bridges - And you're fanning the flames
