Burning Bridges Lyrics

Cover art for Burning Bridges lyrics by Jason Mraz

I don't think this song has anything to do with a relationship....instead, I think it's about letting go of a dream...being so close to accomplishing a goal, yet still so far away from obtaining it. Burning bridges being "a lost cause". It's about the realization of failure, and the feeling that comes after, of wanting to rid yourself of anything to do with the failed effort. (longing for being uninvolved.) Also, you can't always get what you want no matter how much you want it. (desire, can cause heart attacks...it won't bring you back)
