I steal from the beggars' empty plate Give to the fat man I dance in the halls of the nearly insane Pray to God, that is vacant again
Dark is the shadow filled with prejudice, no pride Worn out and welcome, his truth birthing lies A whisper now speaks what words used to say Fallen from grace, luster this way
(Burning Burning bridges light my way) Burning bridges light my way (Burning bridges light my way)
And while the rain keeps comin' down A rope of hopes, to thin to climb The night is closin' in We're down the bottom of the well
(Burning Burning bridges light my way) Burning bridges light my way Burning bridges light my way (Burning) Burning bridges light my way (Burning bridges light my way)
