Busy Burning Bridges
(Dean)
Busy burning bridges
& making plans
for fifteen years
I gave a damn
never been lucky
never been cursed
still it seems someone else
always got there first
& all those youngsters
with their feet wet
don't know the meaning
less the feeling of regret
Busy burning bridges
kept me occupied
while my humanity
was dying inside
I took my career
& threw it in the air
& shot it all to pieces
without a care
Busy burning bridges
while friends with lives
stood waving with their spouses
on the other side
then I was a kid again
my world in front of me
was not a battleground
& I my own worse enemy
