Oh, I've been stumblin' through the darkness,
Tryin' to feel the ground beneath my feet

A little fire is all it took
And as the flames grew brighter,

Things that I'd do different now from then
But when I really make myself get honest,

But there ain't no other way that you can find some peace of mind
Well I...
It's amazing what a man can see by the light of a burning bridge...
