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 Into a world of promises, whoa Is where we let ourselves been led We built the bridges We now sleep under We frame the door ways We may not pass through The very same roads That we now wander Who once you pass us by on We paved with our bare hands Paved with our bare hands A black cloud hovers over me Without all this guilt I feel naked Something about the way it Wraps it's arms around White snow covers everything An angel watches over me Praying, she asks me for a favor Catch me if I fall A rush of blood straight to the head, whoa I wonder what this could have been We built the bridges We now sleep under We frame the door ways We may not pass through The very same roads That we now wander Who once you pass us by on We paved with our bare hands Paved with our bare hands Hey! No I never meant to hurt you No I never meant to do you wrong I stood waiting while the man said move along We lay the tracks down But now they 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 We built the bridges (brace for the crash) (Built from their hypocrisy) We built the bridges (brace for the crash) (Now we brace for the crash) We built the bridges (brace for the crash) (Built from their hypocrisy) We built the bridges (brace for the crash) And underneath the shadows we now live
