Burning Bridges
Protoculture Feat. Tricia McTeague Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Time
Is never on my side
I have to fight tomorrow
I feel I'm stuck
Wasting all my days
I've lived enough, seen what's what
Love is over-rated
Continue on this ride
To find a happy ending
They say that time
Will take away the pain
I've cared too much, for long enough
Love has left me jaded

So I'm taking off
I am burning all the bridges I have known
I am burning

I am burning

I am burning

I am burning

I am burning all the bridges I have known

I am burning all the bridges I have known

So I'm taking off
I am burning all the bridges I have known




Got to free my heart
I am burning all the bridges I have known

Overall Meaning

The lyrics suggest that a past romantic relationship may have contributed to this feeling, with lines like "Love is over-rated" and "Love has left me jaded."


The chorus "So I'm taking off, I am burning all the bridges I have known" emphasizes the desire to move on and start fresh, to leave behind past relationships, routines, and anything that may be holding the singer back. The repetition of "I am burning" emphasizes the intensity of the desire for change. The lyrics suggest that by leaving the past behind, the singer hopes to find a happy ending and be free from the pain of the past.
