Our Breaking Bridge
The bridge between you and me
Is cracking and breaking;
I think I am going under,
Are you also falling and mourning?
As we go towards each other,
The bridge starts unwinding,
No apologies whatsoever;
Everybody's fault,
The abyss waits beneath...
As we start running forward,
I extend my hand,
You didn't reach;
You went back,
Might it hold on?
As I reach out,
The bridge breaks behind me;
We can't look back,
Each second valuable,
So, might I reach the other side?
Abyss or Redemption?
As I feel myself light and weightless,
I know I fall;
Will you save me
Or fall with me?
