Bridges

[Verse 1]
In a world of uncertainty
The night sky told us all to be patient
But when the ground started shaking
I wondered for how long
There's a place that I'd rather be
There's a voice deep inside of me
Saying the progress we are making
Is not progress at all

[Pre-Chorus]
Into a world of promises, woah
Is where we let ourselves been led

[Chorus]
We built the bridges
We now sleep under (Now sleep under)
We frame the doorways (We frame the doorways)
But may not pass through
The very same roads (The very same roads)
That we now wander (That we now wander)
The ones you pass us by on
We paved with our bare hands
Paved with our bare hands

[Verse 2]
A black cloud hovers over me
Without all this guilt I feel naked
Something about the way it
Wraps its arms around
White snow covers everything
An angel watches over me, praying
She asks me for a favor
Catch me if I fall

[Pre-Chorus]
A rush of blood straight to the head, woah
I wonder what this could have been

[Chorus]
We built the bridges
We now sleep under (Now sleep under)
We frame the doorways (We frame the doorways)
But may not pass through
The very same roads (The very same roads)
That we now wander (That we now wander)
The ones you pass us by on
We paved with our bare hands
Paved with our bare hands, hey

[Bridge]
No, I never meant to hurt you
No, I never meant to do you wrong
I stood waitin' while the man said "Move along"
We lay the tracks down
But now they're rotted
Like a runaway train
We brace for the crash
We were in love once
Have you forgotten?
Like a runaway train
Bearing down upon a gap

[Outro]
We built the bridges, woah (Brace for the crash, built from their hypocrisy)
We built the bridges (Brace for the crash, brace for the crash)
(Now we brace for the crash)
We built the bridges, woah (Brace for the crash, brace for the crash)
(Built from their hypocrisy)
We built the bridges (Brace for the crash)
And underneath the shadows we now live
