Bridge To Nowhere

Nobody tells the truth anymore
It went out of style in 2004
And even the referee stopped keeping score

Hiding behind the lies we've learned
forgetting the fire; how it burns
And even the psychics don't know what's in store

Brick by brick we lay it down
no expense is spared
but I won't reach you and you won't reach me
it's a bridge to nowhere
Bit by bit we build it up
with the utmost care
but you can't get there from here
cause it's a bridge to nowhere

I'll tell you one thing I find strange
These people who're so afraid of change
and all they do is sit around and complain

Forgetting about the golden rule
and everything that they learned in school
heads full of more opinions than they can contain

Everyone wants to rule the world
to dictate how fast and when it turns
to be the object of interest and concern

You are the pilot at the helm
of your own private little realm
collide with reality on your return
