Bridgeburner Lyrics

I looked to the west and saw

A thousand setting suns

Is it safe now to crawl across

A thin strand of memories remains

Thinly veiled in golden fog and dreams of dust

It resonates within the cold refrain

I thought I would be free from this

A Cheshire smile

And voices from within, they cry out

Come seeker, try as you might

The image is not getting any clearer

This wastelands promise you’ve held yourself too

Collapses

As freedom and reason shine through

Standing here at the apex of all these selfish thoughts

Trying to remember, just what it is I had once sought

The ideas there, just a little more and I’ll follow through

In desperate flight, for a life once dreamt

To start anew

Oh, time

With open arms we find

Worlds inside

Never spoke

Undefined

Can’t you see this line that you’ve drawn

Stands to be defined

Trying so hard, to not let it fall apart

Through every routine, every motion

Forced march from boredom, kick started with uppers

So why bother? Have you not seen the programs

No one cares but to have a number, a lover

Show them we’ve got what they want

Relevance.

Hypocrites…feigning aspirations

So I’ve been told, but you know

I think I have grown

For the loves and laughs I’d had those days

In my soul, they’ll stay

We are all what we are

And need to be, free from ennui

For the love of love, we all must grow

And let it go

Let it go

And so comes a close to the beginnings of our wanderers journey

Far from home he stands at the edge of all he’s known

And for it all nothing can yet be shown

Time moves ever on, indifferent to our wants and needs

With ease we collapse reduced to mere memories

Memento mori

Just another tale in this fools story
