Take me back to the start Where the piece of the string begins There's nothing here for me Look back and reflect on everything We had and lost Your face, your name won't mean a thing But what I feel is eating away You wrote us off We wrote this song for you The bridge we built was gone before We had the chance to walk its floor You were wrong I guess we should have known The person I knew back then is not the same I see today You said I'd never be without you But here I am living without you You said I'd never be alright (let them burn!) That I could never live my life (live your life!) You wouldn't believe what I could do Now you're listening to a song about you You said I'd never be alright I'm guessing that I'll be just fine Oh, no, no, let's end this masquerade We chose to fight, you walked away The plans we made Were cut short because your word was no good It's what we're fighting for It's what we're fighting for We have nothing to lose And everything to prove, yeah The person I knew back then is not the same, is not the same The person I knew back then is not the same I see today You said I'd never be without you But here I am living without you You said I'd never be alright (let them burn!) That I could never live my life (live your life!) You wouldn't believe what I could do Now you're listening to a song about you You said I'd never be alright I'm guessing that I'll be just fine You said you were sorry It wasn't enough for you, have had enough of my time Let those bridges burn You waited too long And I didn't believe you Let those bridges Burn! Let those bridges burn! Burn! Let those bridges burn! You waited too long (you waited too long) And I didn't believe you (and I didn't believe you) And let those bridges burn You said I'd never be without you But here I am living without you You said I'd never be alright (let them burn!) That I could never live my life (live your life!) You wouldn't believe what I could do Now you're listening to a song about you You said I'd never be alright I'm guessing that I'll be just fine Now we're back to the start And the whole world's looking in This is everything to me Look back and reflect on everything You had and lost You had and lost You had and lost
