Lyrics
It's such a shame to let this go to waste
Expressing regret over wasting something valuable
There's little time left here for saving face
Time is running out to salvage the situation
We tried to put a bandage on these years
Attempted to cover up or fix past problems
I know this isn't what you want to hear
Acknowledging an unwelcome truth
You can say what you like
Encouraging freedom of speech despite consequences
Pass the blame, I don't mind
Accepting responsibility for actions
Because we both lit the match that burned the bridge
Both parties contributed to destroying the relationship
We both lit the match that burned the bridge
Reiteration of shared responsibility for the consequences
We both lit the match and watched our bridges burn down
Witnessing the destruction of their relationship
Yeah, yeah, oh oh
Expressing emotions with sounds (yeah, oh)
I've come and grown this broken load of gold
Growth despite carrying emotional burdens
What slipped through the cracks
Things that were overlooked or neglected
I fear we'll never know
Fear of never understanding what was lost
I walk you through the graveyard of my mind
Sharing personal struggles with the partner
Show you a love
Revealing a love that was suppressed or hidden
That I buried alive
Describing burying emotions or feelings alive
'Cause we both walked away
Mutual abandonment of the relationship
Who was wrong? Whose to say?
Uncertainty about assigning blame
You can say what you like
Encouraging open expression despite fault
Pass the blame, I don't mind
Acceptance of shared responsibility for consequences
Because we both lit the match that burned the bridge
Both parties ignited the conflict leading to separation
We both lit the match that burned the bridge
Reiteration of shared responsibility for the fallout
We both lit the match and watched our bridges burn down
Observing the destruction of their relationship
Yeah down
Yeah oh down
-Yeah, yeah
-Yeah
-We both lit the match that burned the bridge
Reiteration of both parties causing the rift
We both lit the match that burned the bridge
Stressing mutual responsibility for the consequence
We both lit the match and watched our bridges burn down
Witnessing the irreversible collapse of their relationship
Yeah, yeah, oh oh
Expressing emotions with sounds (yeah, oh)
Yeah, yeah, oh oh
-Yeah, yeah, oh oh
