On the bridge made of stone
Stands a man all alone
The bridge was his motivation

It worked him to the bone
With every nail that he drove, it drove him farther from his own
In his punishing isolation, but the bridge just feels like home


She didn't feel quite the same
She despised the bridge and who he became

She left in devastation
She left him there in shame


He said, "I don't understand, this was not part of the plan..."
But it got lost in the translation
Like a castle made of sand


In all the years he's spent struggling
He's been haunted at every turn

He fights the fear as he's growing old
And reminds us in all the he's learned
That we build and burn


Burn!
Burn!

Burn!
Burn!


Here I am all alone
On that bridge made of stone
With smothering motivation, I'm working to the bone


In the end it's what I've known
It's what I hate, but have to show

The bridge is my dedication; the bridge just feels like home

In all the years I've been struggling

I've been haunted at every turn
I the fear as I'm growing old
And remembering all that I've learned

That we build and burn

In all the years he's spent struggling

He's been haunted at every turn
(We'll build and burn)
He fights the fear as he's growing old

And reminds us in all the he's learned
That we build and burn


Burn!
Burn!
Burn!
