Burn Your Bridges
Burning Bridges of Love: Lilith Merlot and Serge Dusault's Heartbreaking Harmony
Lyrics
To see you burn your bridges
To witness you severing connections
I used to see as stitches
Previously perceived as cohesive elements
Keeping my heart together
Maintaining the unity of my heart
Oh, I thought we were forever
Expressing a belief in lasting commitment
But our dreams they don’t line up
Our aspirations do not align
And our lives they won’t wind up
Our paths do not converge in the end
Together, no
Our destinies are not intertwined
Not ever
No reconciliation in the future
Ooh, how could you do me like that?
Expressing betrayal and emotional hurt
Ooh, just went and left me like that
Describing the sudden abandonment
You seem to be unbothered
Not visibly affected or disturbed
By showing your true colors
Revealing one's true nature or personality
Did I make it easy
Questioning if the speaker made it easy to be abandoned
For you to leave me?
Reflecting on the ease with which the person left
But my tears they don’t add up
Tears do not correspond to the love once felt
With the man I used to love
The person is not the same as the one loved before
Oh, the pain you’ve caused
Expressing the pain caused by the person
Who would’ve thought?
Unexpected source of emotional distress
Ooh, how could you do me like that?
Reiterating the feeling of betrayal
Ooh, just went and left me like that
Recounting the abrupt departure
Ooh, how could you do me like that?
Expressing disbelief and emotional pain
You just went and did me like that
Highlighting the act of betrayal
Ooh, how could you do me like that?
Reiterating the shock and hurt caused
Ooh, just went and did me like that
Recalling the sudden and painful departure
Ooh, how could you do me like that?
Expressing the emotional impact of betrayal
You just went and did her like that
Noticing a similar betrayal towards another person
Hmm
Expressing contemplation or a sigh
