We try to make a excuses about the way things are
We have tried to make a tunnel to get to where we think we’re going
We have tried to tunnel under because that way no one has to see your struggle
We try to make excuses for the mistakes that we are living with
Here’s a thought what if all your tunnels were bridges
Here’s something to think about what if you were meant to overcome
Here’s a proposition instead of a tunnel, what if we built a bridge
There are times when we feel all alone but we’re lost in our own tunnel
A bridge is usually over water, and is meant to be crossed thousands of times
A tunnel brings isolation, people want to remain hidden and they feel alone
Our struggles are real and sometimes, our situations can bring hope to others
In my own tunnel no one has to know because I want to remain hidden
Bridges are so much wider and go above the obstacles that stand in the way
Tunnels are for war time, bunkers are for times of self preservation
I’d like to invite you to cross this bridge with me
I’d like to ask you if you would be willing to hold my hand as we get past this
