The Bridge Remains
The river is gone but the bridge remains
Over the rocks and the weeds
The fire is gone but the smoke remains
It blends with the steam in the trees
Footsteps stir up ash and dust
We breath it in and it's part of us
Flame bites down on wood and stone
As the years peel back as flesh from bone
The hawk was a vulture the snake was a rope
The raven just a crow
Frozen roses hang in the mud and the ice
I thought i knew but i know
Footsteps stir up ash and dust
We breath it in and it's part of us
Flame bites down on wood and stone
As the years peel back as flesh from bone
Scotch broom and windswept russian olive
Whiskey neat and a dusty bottle of vodka
On a shelf in a little town
You weren't around anymore
Rest stop coffee never gave you any wings
Or anything you thought you needed
Over the rocks and the weeds
The fire is gone but the smoke remains
It blends with the steam in the trees
Footsteps stir up ash and dust
We breath it in and it's part of us
Flame bites down on wood and stone
As the years peel back as flesh from bone
The hawk was a vulture the snake was a rope
The raven just a crow
Frozen roses hang in the mud and the ice
I thought i knew but i know
Footsteps stir up ash and dust
We breath it in and it's part of us
Flame bites down on wood and stone
As the years peel back as flesh from bone
Scotch broom and windswept russian olive
Whiskey neat and a dusty bottle of vodka
On a shelf in a little town
You weren't around anymore
Rest stop coffee never gave you any wings
Or anything you thought you needed
