Generate meaning
1
Our heart burns broken at the ends, they fail us, keep building
2
my lungs are wax inside my ribs, you're burning, well I'm breathing
3
this back breaks walked on from carrying friends, can't stop now, still working
4
your life's like rain drops on my tongue, I believe you, keep raining
5
and it's alright, it's alright, we are not right now complete
6
and I'm alright, you're gonna be alright, we might never be complete
7
but the water keeps rising, it's rising, everybody get into the water
8
and hold each others hands and lives, let's all push our hearts together....
9
we're gonna leave these shores right now, be everything we've never been
10
but you gotta swear to promise that we'll never go back again, ever again
11
and we're not just islands lying beside each others shorelines
12
we're all bound with veins and hopes, we are not each others ghosts
13
our hearts are abridged, let's build bridges to each other
14
so this river won't take us under
15
filled with monsters and goblins, they keep dragging the bottom
16
our life is a bridge, let's build bridges to each other
17
and pray we don't go under, oh these careless waters
18
I'm trying not to confuse: being used, with giving all I am
19
by: being used, and giving everything I have, all I am
20
so I'll build a bridge with hollow bones filled with hollow teeth
21
inside a hollow heart, with the insides carved
22
and let the blood in these veins freeze
23
let the water in these veins freeze and break and flood the dam
24
we are all we have, this is all we need, hold on it may never end
25
and I might have to drink my teeth again if I wash up on the coast
26
so I'll build a bridge with all that's left, & not make any more new ghosts
27
show me your life, wide and bright, I hope that patience fills the seams
28
keep what's inside, dry and right, you arch the frame I'll span the beams
29
our lives are a bridge for us to give, I want to build a better bridge
30
from every wrong we've done to each other, if I forgive will you forgive?
31
cause one day we're gonna close our eyes for death or rest
32
and abandon ourself, this weak mind and breath
33
and the columns we made, and roots we grew down deep
34
will be pulled and gathered in to firewood, and burnt for heat
35
but when the tension shifts, and these braces turn
36
I'll try and build a better bridge
37
and when all our piers burn, and the hinges miss
38
I'm gonna build a better bridge
39
our hearts are abridged, let's build bridges to each other
40
so we don't take ourselves under
41
Our heart burns broken at the ends, they fail us, keep building
42
my lungs are wax inside my ribs, you're burning, I'm still breathing
43
this back breaks walked on carry friends, can't stop now, still working
44
your life's like rain drops on my tongue, I believe you, keep raining
45
our lives are a bridge for us to give, I want to build a better bridge
46
from every wrong we've done to each other, if I forgive will you forgive?
47
our hearts are abridged, let's build bridges to each other
48
so this river won't take us under, so we don't take ourselves under
49
our lives are a bridge, let's build bridges to each other
50
and pray we don't go under, oh these careless waters
51
our lives are a bridge for us to give, I want to build a better bridge
52
from every wrong we've done to each other, if I forgive will you forgive?
53
our lives are a bridge for us to give, I want to build a better bridge
54
from every wrong we've done to each other, if I forgive will you forgive?
55
our hearts are abridged, let's build bridges to each other
56
so this river won't take us under, so we don't take ourselves under
