Burning My Bridges

Today is a new day
At least that's what people say
But in my world it is on repeat
Every movement of my feet
Same motion, round and round
This awkward feeling I can't keep down
Puzzling it may seem
All I do is dream
To change for the better
As reluctant as I am I can't seem to surrender
My lies keep flowing out of mouth
Relationships are even going south
I try and try to mend these patches
But in the end they're being cut with hatches
Away and away they break and set a flame
Friends and family turn from my blame
Upon the bridge I stand
Trapped on the burning bridges I extend my hand
But no friend nor family come to save me
As they watch the wood roast and I to be
Bridges I've burned from others
Down and down they go
My selfish ways have me shunned from my own brothers
I stand upon the burning bridge to let everyone know
I'm not their brother, friend nor son
I'd rather burn hotter than sun...
My ways shall never be changed
I am who I am and maybe, just maybe I'm deranged
