I am stopping by to tell you
I`ll be leaving here for good,
To go back to where I came from,
Like you always said I should.
I would be a liar if I said that I was fine,
`Cause you opened up my head
And you lost some of my mind.
I`ve been a fool.
I`ve been full of you.
I`ve been lying here so long I don`t know who I`m lying to.
But I`m set on fire
In spite of you.
I will burn another bridge and hope the river burns up too.
When I`m gone,
You`ll be gone too.
Our hands are stained the color of the sky above our heads,
With things we haven`t done
And words we haven`t said.
Still the pain will come as some surprise.
When you burn a bridge the smoke gets in your eyes.
No, I`ve been a fool.
I`ve been full of you.
I`ve been lying here so long I don`t know who I`m lying to.
But I`m set on fire
In spite of you.
I will burn another bridge and hope the river burns up too.
When I`m gone,
You`ll be gone too.
The ashes blow away,
Trailing sheets of rain
All along the interstate
Somewhere into space.
I`ve got no place for ashes,
I`ve got no place for ashes,
I`ve got no place for ashes anyway.
I`ve been full of you.
I`ve been lying here so long I don`t know who I`m lying to.
But I`m set on fire
In spite of you.
I will burn another bridge and hope the river burns up too.
When I`m gone,
When I`m gone,
When I`m gone,
You`ll be gone too.
