about

'At The Bridge' is a song that contains themes of indignation, defiance and social witch hunting.

lyrics

I will bite the finger that you point in my direction,
when you 'fence' the air at my tearful complexion.

I will drench the cheek on which you laid your lip upon;
cleanse the cheek that was touched by your treacherous scum.

I won't be belittled by your condescending reign.
You are not my God; thou shalt not hinder nor restrain.
Transfix on my wrist, no longer looking at the vein.
I will tolerate you, in spite of all the pain.

Cause you are poison.
You are unclean.
Do not touch me.
Do not touch me please.

You might watch me from behind; the other side of the room.
You think that I'm the sullen one, obsessed with my own gloom?
When three fingers point back at you,
see that it's you who's doomed.

I'm at the bridge as I'm writing this.
Can you see the water running?

You did it on purpose.
You did it deliberately.
You don't want an explanation.
You just want to scrutinise.
You don't want justification.
You just want to criticise me.
