Rain falls down in concentration
|
I finally come to the realization
|
That this place I'd once forsaken
|
Will consume my generation
|
Countless, endless summers
|
Opposing everything we've worked for
|
It was foolishness that made us wish
|
We could trade it all away
|
But that was years ago he shrugs
|
Back when we smiled and tipped our mugs
|
A time when boys were men
|
Friends never stood alone
|
Do you remember when I said
|
I'd never walk this town again
|
But you didn't believe me and now
|
We cross our bridges only when we reach them
|
We burn them behind us just to see the smoke
|
We cross, we burn
|
We cross and we burn
|
Day after day this is the nothing we've learned
|
Progress for their promise
|
Hold my breath, now we're all hostage
|
Bite your tongue there son you're just no one
|
Too young to know the beat
|
And I'm not asking you for much more
|
Only something I could strive for
|
If I keep pride outside my head then
|
In my heart there will be peace
|
But that was years ago he screams
|
Back when we still believed our dreams
|
And now we're left to doubt
|
Outstanding self owed debts
|
Do you remember when we said
|
We'd never end up just like them
|
Lost and bereaved
|
We cross our bridges only when we reach them
|
We burn them behind us just to see the smoke
|
We cross, we burn
|
We cross and we burn
|
Day after day is the nothing we've learned?
|
Can't we see what we owe to ourselves?
