lyrics

the way you burn bridges
you'll never get back home
i never learned to swim
my heart sinks like a stone
martyrs park in the spring
we used to laugh and sing
i remember watching the clouds
lying the in clover
you were still holding my hand
when you told me it was over
martyrs park in the fall
15,000 dead and buried thats all
nothing changes on this river
except the people and their hearts
now that mine's broken
i understand this park
