Burning Bridges (Cinder and Dust)

The land divided, we’re suffering, we’re suffering
Dissent in the East, Union at Lick Creek where the trestle’s weak
We’ll leave this world behind, someday our stories bring proof
Divine with the truth
But they say bodies sway at the tracks as a vicious proof
Of what it costs to lose
Please tell me why
Please tell me why
I’m burning bridges
I strike a match everywhere I go
Burning bridges
And you’re caught in the glow
I’m burning bridges
I strike a match everywhere I go
Burning bridges
And you’re caught in the glow
Oh, oh
Our fires burn hot, bridges no longer intact
Lost matches in the dark, it’s such a pointless impact
Please tell me why
I’m burning bridges
I strike a match everywhere I go
Burning bridges
And you’re caught in the glow
I’m burning bridges
I strike a match everywhere I go
Burning bridges
And you’re caught in the glow
Oh, oh
Please tell me why
Please tell me why
Please tell me why
Please tell me why
I’m burning bridges
Strike a match everywhere I go, woah
I’m burning bridges
Strike a match everywhere I go
Burning bridges
And you’re caught in the glow
Oh oh
All fall down to cinder and dust
With luck, it will
