Bridge to Nowhere Lyrics

From the empty streets to abandoned homes
There's a stinging feeling in my eye
Shelter underground in case the big one comes
Why would you plan for it not to work out right?

My focus was blurred
As the world became consumed
For who?

From the lookout tower another fired flare
I wonder if there's a light inside that heart
To escape the mess from every misstep
Why build another bridge that lead nowhere

My focus was blurred
As the world became consumed
For who?

What's embedded, we're coming up for air
Become outdated, we're coming up for air
Lost in the details, we're coming up for air
It's raining ashes, we're coming up for air
We're coming up for air

We're coming up
Even though they say it won't change a thing
These broken promises
Only can last so long
'Fore it all goes away
