Lyrics analysis of burning bridges theme

These are my famous last

words.

My numbers are bridges burned,

burned. Oh, won't you let me

twist your fate?

It's getting kinda late,

and I don't wanna wait no more.

Oh, may I have this dance of days

locked in your embrace? I should

testify.

Another time, another place. Another

line upon your face. Another in

your wake.

Down crooked stairs and sideways glances comes the

king of second chances. Now throw him in

the flames.

Whatever keeps you warm at night. Whatever keeps you warm at night.

Your bridges are burning now.

They're all coming down.

It's all coming 'round.

You're burning them

down. It's all

coming 'round. They're all coming

down. Your bridges are burning

down.

Oh, let me put you in your place. I

love it when you say

I'm giving everything away.

Oh, tell me what's in it for me. Tell me now what's

in it for me. No one's getting this for free,

so tell me now what's in it for me.

Whatever keeps you warm at night.

Whatever keeps you warm at

night.

Your bridges are

burning

now. They're all coming down.

It's all coming 'round.

You're burning

them down. It's all

coming 'round. They're all coming down.

Your bridges are burning down.

Gather in the ashes.

Everything is thrown away.

Gather in the ashes.

Shadows are thrown away.

Gather in the ashes.

Everything is thrown away. Gather in the

ashes.

Shadows are thrown away.

Your bridges are burning now.

They're all coming down. It's all

coming 'round.

You're burning

them down. It's all

coming 'round. They're all coming

down.

Your bridges are burning now. Gather in the ashes.

Now

everything is thrown away. Gather in the ashes.

It's all coming 'round. Shadows are thrown

away. Gather in the ashes.

Everything is thrown

away. Gather in the ashes. It's all coming 'round.

Shadows are thrown away. It's all burning

down.
