Ike Dweck - Bridges Lyrics

it was so damn dark
in my head when I first saw you
smoothing out all my barbs
said careful you'll start bleeding

you told me they're not that sharp
that you've done your share of weeping
and you know a thing about healing

now there's just barren land
in a winter that never leaves
where our young souls danced
he didn't know we were losing shade
and how our future was laced

if you gave me the world
you still would have it faced with worse

cause I liked my bridges burned
you've always liked them over water
now you're stranded on the beach
miles away from any harbor

I'm the storm after the turn
you're the sun before it started
so good luck go find your peace
cause I took all that you are
oh I took all that you are

never would have made it far
I had one foot out our picture ready to rip it apart
I was taught that all that's given becomes something you grieve
so I'd rather drop your hand then have you pull away from me

wasnt man enough to break the chains
so I loosened up our links
there's a boat that's filled with holes
really care what made it sink

if you gave me the world
you still would have it faced with worse

cause I liked my bridges burned
you've always liked them over water
now you're stranded on the beach
miles away from any harbor

I'm the storm after the turn
you're the sun before it started
so good luck go find your peace
cause I took all that you are
oh I took all that you are

I don't sleep cause it's you that I see
reminded of the tears strolling your cheeks
that I'm the reason we reach out repeat
I'm falling down and its so hard to breathe

choking on bullets that I've been on my knees
you're better off the further you are from me

cause I like my bridges burned
cause i like my bridges burned
