Burning Bridges

This song was recorded under the guise of an earlier studio project I worked on for a few years during college. The hook came to me while driving from Des Moines to Chicago after a friend's wedding in 1997. I was listening to a Nine Inch Nails album, although I cannot remember now which one, and was humming my melodies along with the music when the words began falling into place.

I recorded it later the same year in my college's MIDI studio. Instrumentation includes the school's Kurzweil K2000 and my KORG 01W/fd. I sang the vocals and engineered, mixed and mastered everything.

LYRICS
My bridges are burning
And there's not water in sight

Don't burn your bridges
You might find it necessary
To return to the land that
You are familiar with
