Arcade Fire - Burning Bridges, Breaking Hearts Lyrics






Burning bridges, breaking hearts
Everything you taught us to do
We're burning bridges, and breaking hearts
No home to come home to
We're burning bridges, and breaking hearts
I won't look you in the eye
And burning bridges, breaking hearts
Caught you in a friendship lie

Took a visit, to your old house
The windows were all boarded up
Try to hold these, memories
The ocean in a paper cup
There's no future in this town
They barricade the buildings there
To the lion, you've been cast
Only bones are gonna last

There's a city, underground
There's a city made of glass
There's a city, underground
Hurry cause it's breaking fast

There's no future in this town
They barricade the buildings there
We're burning bridges and breaking hearts
No home to come home to

We're burning bridges
(and breaking hearts)
We're burning bridges
(and breaking hearts)
Burning bridges, breaking hearts
(breaking hearts)

Burning bridges, breaking hearts
Everything you taught us to do
We're burning bridges and breaking hearts
No home to come home to

We're burning bridges and breaking hearts
Everything you taught us to do
We're burning bridges and breaking hearts
No home to come home to

  6. O.... ....

    A real masterpiece.

  7. I.... W....

    Why is this so good?

  8. B.... ....

    The ending sounds like the tolling of a gothic cathedrals bells. Something nostalgic about it

  9. I.... h....

    They're just one of those bands where their B-sides are even good.

    J.... S....

    Burning bridges light the night
    lead us to the end

    spaces fill all in between us
    let us dance to the end

    how far into the night
    when the light ends

    burning bridges set us on fire
    Don't let the night end

    J.... S....

    BEST BAND! NOT EVER OR WILL BE...THEY ARE SIMPLY THE BEST!

  23. S.... H....

    Wow. Great minds think alike. I just wrote this about 5 minutes ago that they are the best band to me since the Beatles. They are that diversified. I would say they have taken the Beatles to the next level.

  24. S.... H....

    These guys are so good you never have to worry that they are going to burn out.

    S.... H....

    I've some bad news for you

  25. K.... S....

    amazing song ever

  26. N.... C....

    The part at 1:44 sounds like the song from inception...

  27. M.... R....

    i wish Arcade Fire could know how much do I love them!

  28. s.... ....

    8 years ago today one of the best albums of all time was released

  29. c.... ....

    yeah one of the recordings on youtube is live, you can hear the audience in the background. Well it wasn't this exactly. It had the vocals as well

  30. s.... ....

    Neon Bible could have been alot longer... That being said one of the best albums ever!

  31. T.... ....

    Shame the Glockenspiel is missing from towards the end (like on the live recording). Still absolutely brilliant though!

  32. b.... d....

    Have they ever played this song live?

  33. Y.... ....

    This is the music on which the world turns...

  34. S.... M....

    Go find the original song with lyrics and all....way more powerful...and wonderful

  35. T.... ....

    This sounds a bit like Les Sucettes by Serge Gainsbourg in places :)

  36. g.... ....

    The slow-motion of the audience jumping up and down is EPIC.

  37. A.... ....

    @leochestertrudel

    Hopefully teaching you a thing or two, but it appears to be pointless.

  38. r.... ....

    i'm personally very anti muse - just had to put that out there.

  39. w.... ....

    awesome!

  40. A.... B....

    This is the perfect Band for america, it voices all our fears and all our woes in a way that isn't corny or ill conceived, scratch that a perfect band for all of a new world, a world that doesn't shun its past but embraces eternal decency

  41. M.... 0....

    Omg bands like this suck

  42. A.... ....

    @Frunk222 If you have firefox download the Youtube to mp3 addon

  43. K.... ....

  45. T.... ....

    i think this has been the most insirational band that i've ever known. no other band has music so powerful and wonderful. their music really has a lot of emotion. i love them.

  46. A.... ....

  47. D.... K....
