Was it the wisest choice we made
Maybe not but there's good reason
To bow out sometimes
Find your reason why
And as the seasons start to change
Dreams were lost there in the shuffle
Of fighting to survive
Hard to say goodbye
Sometimes we talk so loud we fail
To stop to hear what we are saying
The muse that died, the tears I cried
But in my heart the song's still playing
We poured the gas, we lit the match
And stayed to watch the bridges burning
Upon the ash, we laid the past
It was the point of no returning
And how amusing we must be
Sometimes I wonder if God Himself
Is inclined to laugh out loud
At the plans we've made
I wish He hadn't made me choose
And left my mind tired and confused
From turning it over and over
It's time to say goodbye
Sometimes we talk so loud we fail
To stop to hear what we are saying
The muse that died, the tears I cried
But in my heart the song's still playing
We poured the gas, we lit the match
And stayed to watch the bridges burning
Upon the ash, we laid the past
It was the point of no returning
The weight of all the world is crashing
Down on me at the thought of losing
Everything I worked so hard to emphasize
Like a phoenix from the ashes we will rise
Forever in my mind the bridges burn
At the point of no return
Forever in my mind the bridges burn
