The old bridge is on fire and I’m the one to blame
A stone cold igniter of a violent flame
Suffer all my brothers and the family name
Like worn out lovers, nobody was gonna change

Our backs were weary and I, I had enough
And you said I want you to know what you’re walking away from
But it was not enough

The old bridge is on fire and tearing at our clothes
Some deadly unnamed fighter, here come the final blows
We’re coughing up our failures and choking on our lows
Leaving a trail behind us of blood and broken bones

Our backs were weary and I, I had enough
And you said I want you to know what you’re walking away from
But it was not enough, no it was not enough

Easy come (easy come), easy go (easy go)
It’s a long way home, it’s a long way home

Our backs are weary and I, I had enough
And you said I want you to know what you’re walking away from
But it was not enough, no
The old bridge is on fire
