Burned Bridges

(album: The Chair In The Doorway - 2009)

Tossed my keys in the river
Now I can't go home again
Burned up my phone book
Now I have to make a real friend
Threw away my watch and wallet
Now I have no time to spend
Gave up my vices
To stop the voices
And now they're back again

Gonna strip it all away
Gonna strip it all away
Gonna strip it all away
Gonna strip it all away

Close my eyes
So I don't see things as they are
Stumbling in the darkness here
My life seems less bizarre
Can't shut my ears off
To the sounds of my own screams
No matter how i try
I can't escape my dreams

Gonna throw it all away
Gonna throw it all away
Gonna throw it all away
Gonna throw it all away

If I burned every bridge I crossed then
Would that mean that i was lost, yeah!
If I burned every bridge I crossed then
Would that mean that i was lost, yeah!
If I burned every bridge I crossed then
Would that mean that i was lost, yeah!
If I burned every bridge I crossed then
Would that mean that i was lost, yeah!
If I burned every bridge I crossed then
Would that mean that i was lost, yeah!

I've done things to myself
That I cannot forgive
I've given up everything
Just so that I could live
I searched the whole world over
For the thing I cannot find
No one cares about my thoughts
So I guess I'll lose my mind

I gave it all away
I gave it all away
I gave it all away
I gave it all away

I burned every bridge I crossed
And how I know I know I am
I burned every bridge I crossed
And how I know I know I am
I burned every bridge I crossed
And how I know I know I am
I burned every bridge I crossed
And how I know I know I am
I burned every bridge I crossed
And how I know I know I am
