I told you once, I told you twice

That you can't live on compromise - but you won't listen

Another time, another place

It's like a neverending race and there's no reason

To waste your life away in one single day



Bridges are burning and chances are few

Man with the scythe - he is coming for you

Stage is the same but some faces are new

Why can't you see that it's over?



I pulled you up, you let me down

I'm sick of dragging you around - it feels like forever

I'm going left, you're going right

Out of my life, out of my sight - it's now or never

Go waste your life away in one single day



Bridges are burning and chances are few

Man with the scythe - he is pointing at you

Stage is the same but some faces are new

Why can't you see that it's over?



Bridges are burning and chances are few

Listen, I'm trying to tell you that

Time's running out, God, but we never knew

Night's getting cold and your story is old - it's been told



I let you in, I turned you loose

I gave you lot's of time to choose to change the story

You are the snake around my hand

The one who used to be my friend - and now you're sorry

I've suffered all the way - you will today

Go, waste your life away in one single day



Bridges are burning and chances are few

Man with the scythe - he is coming for you

Stage is the same but some faces are new

Why can't you see that it's over?



Bridges are burning and chances are few

Waiting is over and this is your cue

Time's running out, God, but you never knew

Listen, I'm trying to tell you
