Thrice - A Better Bridge lyrics
[Thrice - A Better Bridge lyrics]
It's so hard to understand just
Where you're coming from
To try to see things from
A different point of view
I'm trying not to pigeonhole
Or simply write you off
But, it's so much simpler if
The parody is true
Yeah it's so easy to believe it's really you
But, I refuse to buy
Into this tired narrative
That anyone who doesn't run with me's a fool
And I believe together we can
Build a better bridge
That spans the breadth and starts
Connecting me to you
I'm sick of toeing party lines
Across the great divide
I'm sick of human hearts reduced
To red or blue
But there are still often times my thoughts
Of you are cardboard cutout lies
It's so much simpler if the parody is true
Yeah it's so easy to believe it's really you
Yeah it's so easy to believe it's really you
And I refuse to buy into this tired narrative
That anyone who doesn't run with me is a fool
And I believe together we can
Build a better bridge
That spans the breadth and starts
Connecting me to you
Why is it so hard to just remember
That you have a past, a face, a heart
A name?
Oh, it's so hard to just remember, yeah
That we are less different than
We are the same
But, I have to try yeah I have to try
So I refuse to buy into this tired narrative
That anyone who doesn't run with me is a fool
And I believe together we can
Build a better bridge
That spans the breadth and starts
Connecting me to you
I refuse to buy into this tired narrative
That anyone who doesn't run with me is a fool
And I believe together we can
Build a better bridge
That spans the breadth and starts
Connecting me to you
Where you're coming from
To try to see things from
A different point of view
I'm trying not to pigeonhole
Or simply write you off
But, it's so much simpler if
The parody is true
Yeah it's so easy to believe it's really you
But, I refuse to buy
Into this tired narrative
That anyone who doesn't run with me's a fool
And I believe together we can
Build a better bridge
That spans the breadth and starts
Connecting me to you
I'm sick of toeing party lines
Across the great divide
I'm sick of human hearts reduced
To red or blue
But there are still often times my thoughts
Of you are cardboard cutout lies
It's so much simpler if the parody is true
Yeah it's so easy to believe it's really you
Yeah it's so easy to believe it's really you
And I refuse to buy into this tired narrative
That anyone who doesn't run with me is a fool
And I believe together we can
Build a better bridge
That spans the breadth and starts
Connecting me to you
Why is it so hard to just remember
That you have a past, a face, a heart
A name?
Oh, it's so hard to just remember, yeah
That we are less different than
We are the same
But, I have to try yeah I have to try
So I refuse to buy into this tired narrative
That anyone who doesn't run with me is a fool
And I believe together we can
Build a better bridge
That spans the breadth and starts
Connecting me to you
I refuse to buy into this tired narrative
That anyone who doesn't run with me is a fool
And I believe together we can
Build a better bridge
That spans the breadth and starts
Connecting me to you
