Cover art for Bridges lyrics by Lifehouse

Ha. I must agree with you too. I pretty much hated this song at first, but it's grown on me.

Oh and... After the chorus the first time it's

"Our common ground was broken long ago What slipped thru the cracks I fear we'll never know I'll walk you through the graveyard of my mind Show you a love that I buried alive"

Not about broken load of gold... That doesnt really make sense!

Anyways... This song was an easy one to get the jist of.

It's obviosly about a couple who probably had a bit of a bumpy, if you will, breakup. Looking back, he sees that they both had their part in the whole mess and no ONE person was really to blame. It was more of just a big spiraling mess of a relationship/breakup.

I personally like the "lit the match that burned the bridge" part. It's a clever little metaphore there.
