You stand on the other side of the Bridge
My blood cupped in your hands
It flows forth
To the ground
And forms a puddle on the sandy ground
In which you grind your heel
Causing the ground to scream
Like a tortured eagle  

I hurl the purple torch
Setting our fragile link aflame
The space between us
Now dead—empty

The flame of pain glimmers in your inspecting eyes
A relieved sadness mists over mine

Oh, how I didn’t want to do this
But
You’ve hit me  
With too many confusions
Driving me to the brink of insanity
I cannot take any more

I turn towards my future
You turn towards yours
We stagger in opposite directions

…Bye Steph…

In rougbh Dave Matthews voice:

"That was wirtten for girl who really had her claws in me.  See she is a cat and I was in so total dog mode.  I chased after her but you can't chases cats you have to let them come to you...She was a black cat that changes colers"

(Stums a few chords an breaks into "Wearhouse" complete with Passion into)
