The Bridge to Understanding
I like to think
I could do it if I wanted to
I tell myself it's situational, these things
It's not your fault,
it's not your fault
Look around
Everything is dying
And I didn't see this coming
Far away
The sky was clear
Lack of color has never been so threatening
Ignition
Start my flame again
I can't be lost with you
Feel it burrowing
Relaying this information
Is the only way I can move on
Photographs are hard enough to look at
But it's even harder through the layer of water
This suspense is threatening
Relaying this information is the only way I can move on
And before you start to question everything
Save your breath
I like to think I could do it if I wanted to
And it's confidence like that
That will lead to my reign of success
I like to tell myself
It's situational, these things
It's not your fault
It's not your fault
But I like to think
I could make it there if I wanted to
And it's faith like that
That will pave the road to my story of success
Realizing that it's pointless taking advice from you
Always telling me right from wrong
Like your the perfect moral compass
I've already done more nice things
Than you will in your entire life
And it's thoughts like that
That make me question my integrity
But lately I've been feeling pretty good about myself
Far away
The sky's still clear
But I've learned to never trust what you don't understand
And my gut has never let me down
So realign yourself
And I'll walk away in a hastily fashion
Look around
Everything is dying
Far away
The sky looked clear
And I gave in to false hope again
I keep telling myself
Never trust something that can't be explain
I tell myself
It's situational, these things
It's not your fault,
It's not your fault
But lately I've been feeling pretty good about myself
And it's confidence like that
That will get me where I need to be
Ignition
Spark my flame
In the background of a romantic scene
In a suburban living room
Set while snow is falling endlessly
I know someday
Expectations will be the death of me
But along the way,
I like to think,
I could make it last
If I wanted to
