- Bridges LyricsAll the bridges that you burn
Come back one day to haunt you
One day you'll find you're walking
Lonely
Oh baby I
Never meant to hurt you
Sometimes the best intentions
Still don't make things right
But all my ghosts they find me
Like my past they think they own me
In dreams and dark corners they surround me
Till I cry I cry
Let me take this time to set the record straight
Let me take this time to take it all back
Let me take this time to tell you how I felt
Let me take this time to try and make it right
All the bridges that you burn
Come back one day to haunt you
One day you´ll find you´re walking
Lonely
But you can
Walk away, all alone
Spend all your time
Thinking about the way things used to be
If love feels right
You work it out
You don't give it up
Baby
Anybody tell you that
Anybody tell you that
Anybody tell you that
You should take some time maybe sleep on it tonight
You should take some time baby heed the words I say
You should take some time think about your life
You should take some time before you throw it all
away
All the bridges that you burn
Come back one day to haunt you
One day you´ll find your walking
Lonely
Ain't got the time
To sit here and wait around
They got the time
You say I'm what you want
So all the bridges that you burn
Come back one day to haunt you
One day you´ll find your walking
Lonely
Come back one day to haunt you
One day you'll find you're walking
Lonely
Oh baby I
Never meant to hurt you
Sometimes the best intentions
Still don't make things right
But all my ghosts they find me
Like my past they think they own me
In dreams and dark corners they surround me
Till I cry I cry
Let me take this time to set the record straight
Let me take this time to take it all back
Let me take this time to tell you how I felt
Let me take this time to try and make it right
All the bridges that you burn
Come back one day to haunt you
One day you´ll find you´re walking
Lonely
But you can
Walk away, all alone
Spend all your time
Thinking about the way things used to be
You work it out
You don't give it up
Baby
Anybody tell you that
Anybody tell you that
Anybody tell you that
You should take some time maybe sleep on it tonight
You should take some time baby heed the words I say
You should take some time think about your life
You should take some time before you throw it all
away
All the bridges that you burn
Come back one day to haunt you
One day you´ll find your walking
Lonely
Ain't got the time
To sit here and wait around
They got the time
You say I'm what you want
So all the bridges that you burn
Come back one day to haunt you
One day you´ll find your walking
Lonely

Wat goes around comes around? Ahhh yes, the famed parental controller philosophy. The children had better behave because if they don't they will get unwanted consequences. Good behavior as a result of fear of consequence. The flawed Harm Model in action, i.e more harm does not equal more good!
