I steal from the beggar's empty plate

And give to the fat man

I dance in the halls of the newly insane

And pray to a God that is vacant again

Dark is the shadow

Filled with prejudice, no pride

Worn out unwelcome

His truth birthing lies

A whisper now speaks

What words used to say

Fallen from grace luster this way

Burnin' bridges light my way

(Burnin' bridges)

And while the rain keeps coming down

A rope of hope's too thin to climb

The night is closing in

We're down the bottom of the well

(Burnin' bridges light my way)

(Burnin' bridges light my way)

(Burnin' bridges light my way)

(Burnin' bridges light my way)

(Burnin' bridges light my way)

(Burnin' bridges light my way)
