About

The first song to be released fro Futurology, “Walk Me To The Bridge” was written by Nicky Wire and was inspired by the Øresund Bridge (not, as some speculated, the Severn Bridge).

The song is addressed to the band, which Wire personifies as a “faithful friend”.

Walk Me to the Bridge Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Driving slowly to the bridge
With nothing left that we can give
We smile at this ugly world
It never really suited you

[Verse 2]
Old songs leave long shadows
Makes you shut down all your emotions
Money needs money, and slums need the poor
Curled like an animal lying on the floor
Curled like an animal lying on the floor

[Chorus 1]
So long my fatal friend
I don't need this

[Verse 3]
The sky's so clear, that different view
I rarely dream unless it's true
Confusion or master plan
Deceived by the rest, you still have to run

[Verse 4]
The roads never end, the motion starts
Reality gives no romance
Take me to the bridge had another meaning
Singing it loud at the indie disco
Singing it loud at the indie disco

[Chorus 2]
So long my fatal friend
I don't need this to end
I re-imagine the steps you took
Still blinded by your intellect

Walk me to the bridge
Walk me to the bridge
So long my faithful friend
I don't need this

[Bridge]
Walk me to the bridge
Walk me to the bridge

[Chorus 2]
So long my fatal friend
I don't need this to end
I re-imagine the steps you took
Still blinded by your intellect

Walk me to the bridge
Walk me to the bridge
So long my faithful friend
I don't need this
