Burning Bridges to Keep Warm Lyrics

A fire that can be fought

But only stomped and made to dim

It's like I'm trying

To fight the ocean

But I'm convinced that I can win

& the fire is always creeping

Ready to impose its will

& just like that ocean,

It can be calm or it may kill

Come celebrate

At the death parade

There's no shelter from the rain

Come celebrate

At the death parade

There's no shelter from the rain

Time gets lost in the waves

Buried and hard to find

While we hold onto what is real

As we insist that we are fine

We emerge from the shadows

Older from the weight of loss

Somethings you just can't get over

But we adjust and it's enough

& just like the fire

I'm stubborn and love to burn

At times that means bridges

At times that means the world

Taught by a dying breed

Step aside, it's now our turn

& for everything we were taught

There's twice as much to unlearn
