burn down my bridges I will never need again
it's impossible to live with them
planting seeds of restlessness in the minds of lesser men

in the dark of night my shadow withers from my feet
and reveals to me the inner me, leaving no retreat
leaving no retreat, leaving no retreat

and I scramble backwards, to the bridges I return,
now wish that I had reinforced instead of burned
overcome, I seek the help of friends that I have spurned
and realize what happened, there is a lesson to be learned

and all your friends around you keep the circle tight
'cause when the music knocks you down, they'll keep you upright
and though I'm almost certain that this town has got a name
sometime after sunset, they all become the same
sometime after sunset, they all become the same
they all become the same

sometime after sunset
