Bridge Lyrics

There's a narrow bridge that leads me to your door
Between the apple trees and poison leaves that form
Around my shoulders as they toss me back and forth
They bring me pleasure and they always keep me
Warm
Warm

There's a cashman
There are quick cures
There are taste tests
There are trashwhores
There is numbness
There is feeling
There is sickness
There is healing
And I'm halfway to you
But I'm takin' a break
Where I walk with a limp
And I sleep with mistakes
And I blow up my lungs
With the air that I need
And my dreams I'm on knees
And I'm washing your feet
With my hair

And I'm abridged with all of my addictions
All of my addictions
All of my addictions
And I'm abridged with all of my addictions
All of my addictions
All of my addictions

There are sunbeams
There are dark clouds
There are voices
There are no sounds
And I'm stable
So you want me
Yes, I'm stable
While you want me
And I'm upright
While you're downsized
While you're downsized
I am upright
I'm the cashman
You're quick cure
You're taste test
And I'm the trashwhore
And I don't feel a thing
But I want to be real
And I don't feel a thing
But I want to be real
And I don't feel a thing
But I want to be real
And I don't feel a thing
But I want to be real
As you are
Are

There's a narrow bridge that leads me to your door
Between the apple trees and poison leaves that form
Around my shoulders as they toss me back and forth 
They bring me pleasure and they always keep me
Warm
Warm

There's a cashman
There are quick cures
There are taste tests
There are trashwhores
There is numbness
There is feeling 
There is sickness
There is healing
And I'm halfway to you
But I'm takin' a break
Where I walk with a limp
And I sleep with mistakes
And I blow up my lungs
With the air that I need
And my dreams I'm on knees 
And I'm washing your feet
With my hair

And I'm abridged with all of my addictions
All of my addictions
All of my addictions
And I'm abridged with all of my addictions
All of my addictions
All of my addictions

There are sunbeams
There are dark clouds
There are voices
There are no sounds
And I'm stable
So you want me
Yes, I'm stable
While you want me
And I'm upright
While you're downsized
While you're downsized
I am upright

You're quick cure
You're taste test
And I'm the trashwhore
And I don't feel a thing
But I want to be real
And I don't feel a thing
But I want to be real
And I don't feel a thing 
But I want to be real
And I don't feel a thing
But I want to be real
As you are
Are

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

"I sleep with mistakes" not "I sleep with the stakes" and it is "i'm a bridge with all of my addictions"
