I’m sitting here frozen in this bed I made Considering the weight of the bricks I laid now that I’m through One by one sealed every crack that I could slip Between to find my way back, find my way back home to you
And I’m burning all my bridges With these matches I light To illuminate my path to what is right And even if it’s true what they say That you can’t go back home Once you’ve cast it away I would still have left tonight
You know, baby, I would be with you if I could To trade my flesh for your bones I would, I would, I would, I would, I would
I carry with me on my way All the ghosts of all the love that I let slip away The heavy weight of promises made That if I could exonerate I might just lift off today
And I’m burning all my bridges With these matches I light To illuminate my path to what is right And even if it’s true what they say That you can’t go back home Once you’ve cast it away I would still have left tonight
You know, baby, I would be with you if I could To trade my flesh for your bones I would, I would, I would, I would, I would
I chased your memory from my mind But every song I write is just a wish to find you near or far Through all the tears and all the time That I been running blind, I still ain’t got to where you are
And I’m burning all my bridges With these matches I light To illuminate my path to what is right And even if it’s true what they say That you can’t go back home Once you’ve cast it away I would still have left tonight
You know, baby, I would be with you if I could To trade my flesh for your bones I would, I would, I would, I would, I would
