Bridge Burning Lyrics

This song is about Christianity.

These are my famous last words! My number's up, bridges well, burned (The moment I die, that will be it)

Why won't you let me disobey It's getting kinda late but I don't wanna wait no more (I've been believing in you for a long time but I think it's enough)

Oh may I have this dance of days Locked in your embrace Passed your test of faith (This is as far as I go, you have to admit that I've done enough)

Another time another place Another line upon your face Another in your way (Every person that exists in the world disobeys your word)

Down crooked stairs and sideways glances Comes the king of second chances Now throw him in the flame (This is actually very straightforward, the crooked stairs and sideways glances mean mistakes and hyocrisy; the king of second chances is some kind of title)

Whatever keeps you warm at night (If you want to lie to yourself, be my guest)

Your bridges are burning down They're all coming down It's all coming round You're burning them down (Burning bridges down is means that there's no turning back now, and that once you know the truth, you can't look back)

Dude, I highly doubt this is about Christianity. I doubt Dave and company aren't Christian but last time I checked they wanted this album to be heavy and hard...Jesus doesn't fit anywhere in the category.
