The Bridge I Burned

I'm walking down Times Square In the Electric Daylight The sailors on shore leave stand out In their perfect white I'm up here with my spying gla*s At the window of the world For better or for worse It's a perverse universe, my love Now I know, I should have never walked Over the bridge I burned Now I know, somehow I don't feel so alone You mutter underneath your breath It echoes round the world Everybody comes from nowhere There is hope, it loops up in the air Now I know, I should have never walked Over the bridge I burned Now I know, somehow I don't feel so alone You said, I used to be handsome If you screwed up your eyes Professors and vampires Drank up all the tears I cried Now there's a bird at my window He feeds upon the pain And sometimes he sings to me A mocking bird in the twilight of infamy Now I know, I should have never walked Over the bridge I burned Now I know, somehow I don't feel so alone Now I know, I should have never walked Over the bridge I burned Now I know, they've burned one sinner And the others are set to follow Now I know, now I know, now I know
