Burning Bridges - Chapman

Some friends I chose

And some friends I lost

Some became my enemies

But they all became my past

I used to disappear

I just couldn’t stay

There was always a reason

For leaving one day

I’ve been burning bridges

All my life

Every bond is flammable

And easy to light

I’ve been leaving ashes

Where I used to be

I’ve burnt all my bridges

Do you remember me

When I was a child

I let them in my home

They only came to break my toys

And make me feel alone

Sitting in my room

I didn’t feel the same

I closed the door to save myself

And stood there in the flames

I’ve been burning bridges

All my life

Every bond is flammable

And easy to light

I’ve been leaving ashes

Where I used to be

I’ve burnt all my bridges

Do you remember me

If you wondered why

You didn’t hear from me

If I didn’t say goodbye

Don’t take it personally

Want to feel more trust

I don’t need another fight

I want to stay

Not walk away

From those who really care

I’ve been burning bridges

All my life

Every bond is flammable

And easy to light

I’ve been leaving ashes

Where I used to be

I’ve burnt all my bridges

Do you remember me
