Bridges

In a world of uncertainty
The night sky told us all to be patient
When the ground started shaking
I wonder for how long
There's a place that I rather be
There's a voice deep inside me saying
The progress we are making
Is not progress at all

Into a world of promises (wo, oh!)
Is where we let ourselves been led

We build the bridges
We now sleep under
We frame the doorways
But we not pass through
The very same roads
That we now wander
Who once you pass us by on
We paved with our bare hands
Paved with our bare hands

A black cloud hovers over me
Without all this guilt I feel naked
Something about the way it
Wraps its arms around
White snow covers everything
An angel watches over me praying
She asks me for a favor
Catch me if I fall

A rush of blood straight to the head (wo, oh!)
I wonder what this could have been

We build the bridges
We now sleep under
We frame the doorways
But we not pass through
The very same roads
That we now wander
Who once you pass us by on
We paved with our bare hands
Paved with our bare hands
Hey!!!

No I never meant to hurt you, oh!
No I never meant to do you wrong
I stood waiting while the man said : move along

We lay the tracks down
But now they rotted
Like a runaway train
We brace for the crash
We where in love once
Have you forgotten?
And like a runaway train
Bearing down upon a gap

We build the bridges (brace for the crash!)
We build the bridges (brace for the crash!)
We build the bridges (brace for the crash!)
We build the bridges (brace for the crash!)

And underneath the shadows we now love
