Burning Bridges: One Republic (Acoustic)

You Rise in love, you rise so high that you lose the sight of all mere earthly creatures. You crave and long for this heavenly feeling. And u better bet your ass that you don’t fall from there. Cause the higher you rise, crazier you fall. Breaking every bone in your body, scaring you to ever rise again. The next time you get a moment to rise again, you start building bridges so that even if you fall you won’t hit the rock bottom. You just fall to the next bridge you built, you save yourself from the mighty fall you had. Now you are fallen but not broken. You are safe. You are not hurt.

When you think back, you will realize one thing. You were so busy in planning retreat plans and building bridges that you never reached higher.  You were so afraid to lose yourself that you never let go of yourself. You were so afraid of rising that you never started climbing.
This song reminds of these feelings,

“I, I keep on running
I’m building bridges that I know you never wanted”

Now there is one moment you know that this is the one, but your body don’t let go of the ground. You can’t let go of the fear you have,

“You and I were meant to be
Ain't no doubt about it
No way to hide that sort of thing
Now I’m waiting for something better
Ain't nothing better worth imagining”

You wana take it further, but your mind has evolved, it will never stop building bridges. It will never stop retreating. So no way left other than, let the other one know. This other one is the all-strong, all-possible self. Only He/She can make you dive in the deep ocean without thinking twice. There is MOKSHA in the dive. There is NIRVANA in rising.

“Look for my heart
You stole it away
Now on every single road that I could take
Listen, I want you to burn my bridges down
I said, I want you to burn my bridges down
Set me on Fire
You set me
Set me on Fire
You can burn my bridges down”

LET GO OF YOURSELF.

GO CRAZY!
