[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda]
I used the deadwood to make the fire rise
The blood of innocence burning in the skies
I filled my cup with the rising of the sea
And poured it out in an ocean of debris
[Chorus: Chester Bennington]
I'm swimming in the smoke of bridges I have burned
So don't apologize, I'm losing what I don't deserve
What I don't deserve
[Verse 2: Mike Shinoda]
We held our breath when the clouds began to form
But you were lost in the beating of the storm
And in the end, we were made to be apart
Like separate chambers of the human heart
[Chorus: Chester Bennington]
I'm swimming in the smoke of bridges I have burned
So don't apologize I'm losing what I don't deserve
It's in the blackened bones of bridges I have burned
So don't apologize I'm losing what I don't deserve
What I don't deserve
[Guitar solo]
[Chorus: Chester Bennington]
I'm swimming in the smoke of bridges I have burned
So don't apologize I'm losing what I don't deserve
The blame is mine, alone, for bridges I have burned
So don't apologize I'm losing what I don't deserve
What I don't deserve
What I don't deserve, oh
What I don't deserve
[Outro: Mike Shinoda]
I use the deadwood to make the fire rise
The blood of innocence burning in the skies
