A burning bridge
Staging a traffic jam
Intention stained upon expression
Eyes the sky's darkest clouds
Constipated mountains of condensation

*at the start there was innocence
breaks my heart doesn't make no sense
just start again thats the recompense
just learning to fly
in a sense
its innosence
its my only defense
on a guilt trip
and being held hostage
*see this chair see this empty room
theres my heart theres my open wound
'cause the end always comes too soon
just try to get by!
