Bridge Burn - Little Comets

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

Is their monotony

She says, we need to bridge burn…

We need to bridge burn…

Shukran!

Shukran!

He whispers to her hands

And sees his future in the beach out stretched before them

The way the waves

Wash empty words away

Is opportunity, he nods

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’s

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

They need to bridge burn.

We need to bridge burn

We need to bridge burn

Bridge burn
