Array ( [sid] => 116025 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => I HAD TO BURN MY BRIDGE [time] => 2006-03-07 19:41:51 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I HAD TO BURN MY BRIDGE
I HAD TO LET IT GO
I HAD TO LET IT BURN TO ASHES
AND LET IT DROP IN THE WATER FALL
I SAID MEAN THINGS TO YOU
WORDS AWFUL AND UNFORGIVABLE
BECAUSE I WAS HURT YOU WANTED TO GO
YET I SIT IN PAIN
WISHING I COULD TAKE THOSE WORDS AWAY
BUT I DO FIND A RELIEF A FINAL DECISION WAS MADE
I KNOW WHAT I KNOW
ITS OVER I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO LET YOU GO
SO I HAD TO BURN MY BRIDGE
I HAD TO LET IT GO
I HAD TO LET IT BURN TO ASHES
AND LET IT DROP IN THE WATERFALL
YOU SEE THE EMOTIONS YOU BRING OUT IN ME
ARE OF SUCH INSANITY
AND BECAUSE I CANT HAVE YOU
ALL AND EVERY BIT OF YOU
I HAVE TO WALK AWAY
IF I AM TO STAY SANE
I HAD TO BURN MY BRIDGE
I HAD TO LET IT GO
HAD TO LET IT BURN TO ASHES
HAD TO LET THEM DROP IN THE WATERFALL
LET IT FORCE THEM DOWN
TO THE BOTTOM OF THE RIVER AND DROWN
BECAUSE I KNEW THERE’D COME A DAY
ID REGRET THE WORDS I DID SAY
BUT I CAN TELL MYSELF ITS OK
BECAUSE OF THIS I HAVE TO WALK AWAY
FOR THE PAIN IS TOO GREAT
TO DEAL WITH IT IN MY PATHS WAY
BUT STILL THE DAY HAS COME
I HAVE FOUND MYSELF WEAK
I WANT TO FIND YOU, NOW THAT’S INSANITY
SO FOR ONCE, I KNOW I DID WHAT IS RIGHT AND TRUE
I BURNED THE BRIDGE BETWEEN ME AND YOU
YES, I LET THIS BRIDGE BURN
TO TINY BITS OF BLACK ASHES
BACK I NOW CANNOT TURN
MUST GO ON MUST GO ON
SOMETIMES I CAN SEE YOU
STANDING ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BRIDGE
AND SOMETIMES I GET LOST AND REFLECT
MAYBE WHAT I DID WAS WRONG
MAYBE I COULD’VE HAD YOU IN MY ARMS
BUT CAN NO LONGER GO BACK AND FORTH
CANT REGRET MY AWFUL WORDS
THE BRIDGE IS BURNED, IT IS GONE
FINALLY I KNOW EXACTLY THE DIRECTION TO GO ON

Good stuff. It was easy to understand. I like that. And hey, sometimes you have to burn bridges in life. I've burned a bridge or two in my life and I'm glad I did. C-ya!
