Lyrics A Bridge Ablaze - Schammasch

A Bridge Ablaze

Carefully did she choose
Where her feet would gain further ground
Each step an extension of the idea
Behind the symbolical trumpet
Behind her, closely, a growing trail of golden flames
Ready to consume the bridge, that was just being crossed
By her who commands both dawn and dusk, in its entirety
Leaving but a skeleton of stone
Upon reaching the end said bridge, now groaning
Under the pressure of impending death, she turns her head
For one last view of, not the piece of work that is about
To face its certain end, but the land that lies behind it
And for just one second
A gleam of content flashes up in her eyes
And so she marches on
