Bridges To Burn

On this day so close to Christmas
as we hear the angel's hark,
I am falling ever closer
to that black edge of the dark.

I am falling, ever deeper
and I'm lost in this despair,
And I wonder, will I live through this
or, do I even care?

There was no known trigger
to this darkness in my heart
And I don't know how to flee it,
Don't know how to start.

It's a time for joy and gladness
and pull your loved ones near,
And it all falls so haphazardly,
When the laughter you can't hear

What happened to the joy I felt,
days ago, so far away?

I am not in danger,
I would not seek relief,
not unless
the soul can die,
from dealing with such grief

I wish so much to claim it,
the joy to just return,
and every time I turn around
ANOTHER bridge to burn

Lord, I just can't handle
ANOTHER bridge to burn.
