Lyrics Bridge to Cross - Light This City

Bridge to Cross

Standing over a fault line with a foot planted on either side
With the only world I ever knew balanced on one shoulder
And a heart I’m just getting used to beating on the other sleeve
I stood my ground in a place I knew I might never find peace
And as my foundation shakes
I’m left to wonder
Did I nurture this expanding divide
Golden bridges turn the color of flame
And suicide missions are redeemed when they become fatalities of natural
disasters
My steel core is melting
Oh
If you only knew about the doubts I allowed
To grow up through the cracks
Pushing their way out
Grasping at sunlight
I can’t choose a side
But I can’t stay here anymore
Standing on the edge
A voice begins to whisper
I’ve tried to ignore it
But I can’t avoid such a groundbreaking revelation
Standing on the edge of an abyss
Because I’m holding onto so much
I just might lose it all
I know where my real home is
And I’m leaving it behind
