Bridges Made Of Matches Lyrics

Bridges Made Of Matches lyrics

The boards of these matches

Still creak beneath my feet

I'm already lighting that match

Already burning it down

It's getting harder to look in the mirror lately

Afraid the gears on this clock are going to stop turning

Before i figure out just what I'm doing here

Sometimes its all so certain

Sometimes its so unclear

This melody in my mind slows down sometimes

My dance quiets to a shuffle 'cross the floor

Nights go out and my friends go home

And I'm left standing behind this lonely door

The same silence where i find my sanctuary

Locked away my silent prayers for comfort

Waiting for that sun to shine

Down on me

That warmth on my skin starts to burn

Behind these iron bars

Through this open window

I'm waiting for that sun to sun shine

Wish these scars could form a name across my heart

At least then I'd know who to blame

As I look through the haze of my selfish ways

It starts to look alot like my name
