Burning Bridges Lyrics

Cover art for Burning Bridges lyrics by OneRepublic

To me, when he says "I want you to burn my bridges down," he is not asking the woman to cut him off from contact, he wants her to not let him retreat, or back out in anyway. He obviously knows he keeps on running away every time they get close, even though they love each other, so he wants her to make sure he never runs away, that he is completely burning with love and not scared of it.

My Interpretation

Nailed it.
