Standing in the semi-darkness
Like you're only half there
From shadow to silhouette
To someone just arrived from nowhere
But never mind these things I tried to say
The bridges built are burning just the same
And there's no way
And there's no way
To understand the architecture
Of how you build yourself
Whatever
Whatever mental picture
Fits the blueprint you felt
And never mind this talk of who's to blame
The bridges built are burning just the same
The mess we've made
The mess we've made
The mess we've made
And now it knows my every move
Every paralysed idea
This siren's song is the only thing
That I can hear
And you've been holding on
To anything you can
Closer now is further down
With every step you take in quicksand
So never mind these things I tried to say
These bridges built are burning, burning just the same
And there's no way
Out of the mess we've made
The mess we've made
