Let's just end what we've begun I know we're at a loss Like the desert, we've become a place to die alone A place to die alone And if vultures have their reason for desecrating skin Then I'll be the rot under the sun Are you listening to me? If dead stalk the living in complicated schemes Then I'll be the one foot in the grave Are you listening to me? Why does this feel like a bad dream? (Burning bridges crumbling over you) Why do I feel so numb? (Burning bridges crumbling over me) Let's just end what we've begun We were robbed of something more Like the desert, we've become a place to die alone A place to die alone And if junkies have their reasons for penetrating skin I'll be the needle in your arm Are you listening? If all the world's a stage where the characters decease I'll be the first to kiss the earth Are you listening to me? Why does this feel like a bad dream? (Burning bridges crumbling over you) Why do I feel so numb? (Burning bridges crumbling over me) Why can't I wake from all the grieving? Why does this feel like a bad dream? (Burning bridges crumbling over me) k** the sound. It's getting worse We're falling deep from poison nerves Battling to keep complete Is this what we deserve? Lights go out, we keep from sleep We're threatened with a curse Tragedy we can't release When will we learn? Why does this feel like a bad dream? Why do I feel so numb? (Burning bridges crumbling over me) Why can't I wake from all the grieving? Why does this feel like a bad dream? (Burning bridges crumbling over me)
