Building And Bridges lyrics

Artist  : Ani Difranco 
Song : Building And Bridges
 


buildings and bridges
are made to bend in the
wind
to withstand the world,
that's what it
takes
all that steel and stone
is no match
for the air, my friend
what doesn't bend
breaks
what doesn't bend breaks

we are
made to bleed
and scab and heal and bleed
again
and turn every scar into a joke
we
are made to fight
and fuck and talk and fight
again
and sit around and laugh until we
choke
sit around and laugh until we
choke

i don't know who you were
expecting
probably some bitch who does not
budge
with eyes the size of snow
i may get
pissed off sometimes
but you seem like the
type to hold a grudge
and in the end, i just
let go...

buildings and bridges
are
made to bend in the wind
to withstand the
world,
that's what it takes
all that steel
and stone
is no match for the air, my
friend
what doesn't bend breaks
what
doesn't bend breaks
