Kate Kato - Burn the Bridge Lyrics

He laughs at me, calls me crazy
Till I'm brainwashed & don't know what to even believe
He's trained me to ignore issues
'Till I'm so weak I no longer ask for what I need

I don't know how to be around my family too
They don't understand the shit he drags me through
Everybody sees him as the life of the party but
They're not around when he's wasted, calling me names till I'm cryin'

I keep tellin' myself that
Sometimes you gotta burn the bridge
Even though you know it's gonna hurt
I keep tellin' myself that
Sometimes you gotta light the match
Even though you know it's gonna burn
I'm falling through thin glass whenever he's around
He's dragging me on down to where he's sinkin' now
Got no other choice, I gotta leave him
Even though I know it's gonna hurt
I keep tellin' myself that
Sometimes you gotta burn the bridge
Even though you know it's gonna hurt

Downplays my dreams with jealousy
Trash talks my friends by trying to keep me far from them
Blames his exes, his defenses
He trusts nobody, calls himself the only victim

I don't know how to be around my family too
They don't understand the shit he drags me through
Everybody sees him as the life of the party but
They're not around when he's wasted, calling me names till I'm cryin'

I keep tellin' myself that
Sometimes you gotta burn the bridge
Even though you know it's gonna hurt
I keep tellin' myself that
Sometimes you gotta light the match
Even though you know it's gonna burn
I'm falling through thin glass whenever he's around
He's dragging me on down to where he's sinkin' now
Got no other choice, I gotta leave him
Even though I know it's gonna hurt
I keep tellin' myself that
Sometimes you gotta burn the bridge
Even though you know it's gonna hurt

Made myself think my love was enough
Believed that you would suddenly wake up
Lost confidence so I wore sweats, to ease your mind from turning eyes
One day I'll wear that little dress, feel beautiful again

I keep tellin' myself that
Sometimes you gotta burn the bridge
Even though you know it's gonna hurt
I keep tellin' myself that
Sometimes you gotta light the match
Even though you know it's gonna burn
I'm falling through thin glass whenever he's around
He's dragging me on down to where he's sinkin' now
Got no other choice, I gotta leave him
Even though I know it's gonna hurt
I keep tellin' myself that
Sometimes you gotta burn the bridge
Even though you know it's gonna hurt
