Over The Footbridge Lyrics

Wrap your arms around your pain
And tell me how it feels
To hold onto the only thing
That will never leave you
Give yourself to a world
Indifferent to your plans
Expose your soul for all to see
And keep a steady hand
Wish I could try letting go
Still I hold tight and I know
When the sting of separation
Lingers long enough
You learn to hide the pain it brings
To keep from giving up
Just say “I do” and I promise to
Let this emptiness consume me
Close your eyes and try to see
That truth is blind to reason
Rest your bones where you lay your head
In the places where you'll need them Look inside and you'll surely find
Broken dreams and the sweetest lines
Left out to rust and yet I must
Insist on feigning love
Wish I could try letting go
Still I hold tight and I know
When the sting of separation
Lingers long enough
You learn to hide the pain it brings
To keep from giving up
We are condemned to freedom
Loneliness is the human condition
Where should I look for answers?
Love is a sickness
Lust is a cancer
Watching friends becoming lovers
Holding hands, making plans
I'm on the outside looking in
