burn those bridges to the ground

without a sound


you just blew up


onto bigger destitute

this is your art


this is their truth


someone told you life is short

but yours is long


longing for validation


sure you never needed song

but without harmony you gave them


underwhelming hope, faith, life's work


end it in a flat note gesture

passionate to some, isn't that enough?

up the ladder to the lounge

in an old suit


you make them proud to crush you


seems they like watching you burn

just like the bridge you once traversed


burn those bridges to the ground without a care


you know your nothing more than here

they're aimless


addicted to the sound of insufficient


only recognize before you compromise
