lyrics

VERSE 1:
There is a storm and there is evil behind your eyes,
With the Devil's spark I sense danger.
You've got that psycho quality that I enjoy,
Is it the danger I crave or the broken souls that I want to save?

CHORUS:
And you leave every bridge in ashes behind you.
And you just burned the last bridge between us.
So I erase every part of you that I had left,
No one will ever be the master of my mind and my heart.

VERSE 2:
I'm trying to get back on my feet, but you're in my way.
Stop bothering me, still shadow in the corner of the room.
I found strength in solitude,
I survive this way.
I'm slowly learning about this stranger in my clothes and my shoes.

CHORUS:
And you leave every bridge in ashes behind you.
And you just burned the last bridge between us.
So I erase every part of you that I have left,
No one will ever be the master of my mind and my heart.

BRIDGE:
But I see that you're nothing more than a mimic, with a lack of identity.
Bitter when it's your own fault,
I only pity you.

CHORUS:
And you leave every bridge in ashes behind you.
And you just burned the last bridge between us.
So I erase every part of you that I have left,
No one will ever be the master of my mind and my heart.

And you leave every bridge in ashes behind you.
And you just burned the last bridge between us.
So I erase every part of you that I have left,
No one will ever be the master of my mind and my heart.
