Bridge Burn
The shore, the shore, it is a metaphor
For every moment that has ever passed between them
The way, the rays, repeat upon her face
It’s their monotony, she says: We need to bridge burn
We need to bridge burn
We need to bridge burn
We need to bridge burn
We need to bridge burn
Shukran! Shukran! He whispers to her hands,
And sees his future in the beach outstretched before them
The way, the waves, wash empty words away
Is opportunity, he nods,
We need to bridge burn.
We need to bridge burn
We need to bridge burn
We need to bridge burn
We need to bridge burn
But I could tell you that it means so much
To look in your eyes, to look in your eyes
And I could tell you that it‘s not a crutch
To look in your eyes, to look in your eyes
We need to bridge burn, bridge burn
So now her heart, a mirror from the start
Evacuates the empty space that grew between them
He holds, her near, the sun a souvenir
A final time to reminisce before they bridge burn
We need to bridge burn
We need to bridge burn
We need to bridge burn
We need to bridge burn
We need to bridge burn, bridge burn
