about

This song was written at a time where I was just beginning to really feel the sting of falling out of love for the first time. Anger, bitterness, dissapointment, and a line about owls.

lyrics

Don't burn bridges when you think you can fly
You don't know
I don't care

When you finally let it out on me
I won't be
There for you this time

And we need, some kind of miserable game
Where we
Can't stand one another and

You, don't wanna talk right now
And I
I agree with you there

Don't even want to know
And you want to show
But you can't find
A way out of here (x2)

Don't even wanna speak your name (x3)

Don't even wanna say it

Don't kill the messenger when it's done
It's alright
It won't hurt

When the owls come to take you away
I'll just laugh
And throw you a bone and it hurts

Trying to think of what it's like
To be you
And it's true

You're the reason I'm going away
And so far
I've no complaints

Don't even want to know
And you want to show
But you can't find
A way out of here (x3)
