Bridge - Dear Love

We’re sick and tired

But there’s a reason and a

Rhyme inside of us all

Yours has you stacking bricks on the shoreline

Mine’s got me digging down to the sea

I know exactly what you want in me but

Your bridge is a road

That I can’t journey

Earth is tearing through your skin

I’m sorry

There’s an element of spite to this

Used to think we knew what love meant

But I cannot feel a thing

Cannot feel a thing for you

We don’t have a long way to go

While you’re scaling up the walls and the wires

I’ve been carving mortar out underneath

You thought you had a plan up for me but

Your bridge will erode into the sea

You’ve been alone, I’ve been around

What you think you know, I’ve figured out

What you see in me, I’ll find in someone else

You always seem to make believe

That this was something meant to be

But I am crawling from the outside in

Dust and gravel blowing in the wind

I’ve got a heart for someone else to mend

And your bridge will crumble to your chagrin
