Burning Bridges

It was a Saturday, I remember it well,
Day you told me that you’re leaving.
Funny, I knew, it wasn’t hard to tell,
The way you’re kicking at the ground.

And we run like wolves and we fight like vultures,
It hurts so deep that it puts us under.
Like so many ways to keep dragging you down,
Cuts into the bone.

So you burn your bridges, changed your name,
Stole the keys ,then threw them all away.
I know we’re not the same, you know I remember everything.
No, we’re not the same, keep on running, don’t look back again.

And you told me the story about how it would be,
The other life that’s just outside the door.
I can feel it, just wait and see,
Late tomorrow night.

And we’ll run on God and we’ll run on Jesus,
Somehow together we’re all run this whole time.
It’s deep down in the bones.

So you burn your bridges, changed your name,
Stole the keys ,then threw them all away.
I know we’re not the same, you know I remember everything.
No, we’re not the same, keep on running, don’t look back again.

And for so many nights I keep running around,
Finding love in places, now you’re gone.
And I know that you don’t understand being by the arm.
And I’ll run God and I’ll run Jesus,
Use this drink ‘till I run this whole world.
It’s deep down in the bones.

So you burn your bridges, changed your name,
Stole the keys ,then threw them all away.
I know we’re not the same, you know I remember everything.
No, we’re not the same, keep on running, don’t look back again.
You just keep on running, don’t look back again.
Go, keep on running, don’t look back again.
