[Verse 1] Spotlights have a funny glow
They can keep you warm
But they can make you go crazy
Always gotta be the show
So you never know
What it's like being in the crowd
Lately I'm hearing people say
You're a runaway
And somebody's got to bring you
Back to reality
Help you see the things
That you might've been lookin' past

[Chorus] I ain't burnin' bridges
I'm tryin' to mend them
I apologize
If I ever hurt your feelings
Got my own convictions
And I got to live them
I ain't burnin' bridges
That ain't my intention

[Verse 2] Ain't got nothin' to hide
Yeah
I'm good with God
My soul's naked like water
You and I wouldn't want to see
The girl I'd be
If I wouldn't have turned you down
You showed me so many things
But the best would be
Never ever rolled over
Stand up for what I believe
And eventually everyone
Will come back around

[Chorus] I ain't burnin' bridges
I'm tryin' to mend them
I apologize
If I ever hurt your feelings
Got my own convictions
And I got to live them
I ain't burnin' bridges
That ain't my intention

[Bridge] Always three sides to every story
There's yours
And there's mine
But we've been ignorin' the truth
It hides
Behind a clear disguise

[Chorus] Oh
I ain't burnin' bridges
I'm tryin' to mend them
I apologize
If I ever hurt your feelings
Got my own convictions
And I got to live them
I ain't burnin' bridges
That ain't my intention
