Embers and Envelopes by Mae Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We write to apologize
We ask to look past life as it goes by
I know you have sacrificed
Time, life, love; time to fly
Please consider all things trite
Forgiveness will be the thing that gets us by
I know to have something like this broken is hard to fix

[Chorus]
Embers, we're burning bridges down
Oh, envelopes stuffed with feelings found
To write this down as means to reconcile
Embers, we're burning bridges down
Oh, envelopes stuffed with feelings found
To write this down as means to reconcile

[Verse 2]
We write to patch things up
Maybe not to agree, but to proclaim love
Let's look ahead and then
We'll see the One whose glory never ends
And based on that we'll see
There'll be room for change, but gradually
I know to have something like this broken is hard to fix
[Chorus]
Embers, we're burning bridges down
Oh, envelopes stuffed with feelings found
To write this down as means to reconcile
Embers, we're burning bridges down
Oh, envelopes stuffed with feelings found
To write this down as means to reconcile

[Bridge]
Embers, we're burning bridges down
Oh, envelopes stuffed with feelings found
To write this down as means to reconcile
Embers, we're burning bridges down
Oh, envelopes stuffed with feelings found
To write this down as means to reconcile

If all is said and done and over
(Embers, we're burning bridges down)
If we don't have to, we're not going to
(Oh, envelopes stuffed with feelings found)
Make the change, it's worth the try
(To write this down as means to reconcile)
What's broken can be fixed tonight

Embers, we're burning bridges down
Oh, envelopes stuffed with feelings found
To write this down as means to reconcile
