I've been searching a way
Keeps getting farther from me
Where do we go from here
It leaves me wondering
Am I fighting a war I can never win?
I put my head down and close my eyes
I let myself get lost, not in the lies but in the memory
The bridge is burning as I walk through
That's what I want it to do
I thought I had it all
I had it all to lose
Searching something that disappeared
And now that it's gone
I don't know what to do
It’s just like looking in the mirror
I saw a man through the smoke, he held out hope
He raised his hands and offered me this rope
"If you want to be free you have to just grab a hold" he told me
I looked up from the bottom of this hole
Felt the rope on my skin and lost control
Then it burned through my hands and I just let go
I've been searching a way
A place where I can stay
Where do we go from here
When you're so far away
Am I fighting for something I'll never have
I try to loosen these knots I’ve tied
I let myself get lost, not in your eyes but in the melody
The song is playing for me and you
If only that were true
I thought I had it all, I had it all to lose
I am on the brink, but I feel nothing
I feel everything
I thought I had it all
I had it all to lose
Searching something that disappeared
And now that it's gone
I don't know what to do
It’s just like looking in the mirror
