[Verse 1] Need to be inspired, escape the mundane, Etched and stretched and drained of all I had. Trapped inside the weight I bear each day, Wanting to aspire, obsessed with deep desire. [Pre-Chorus] Broken-hearted from the fragile pastimes, Eclipsed by tattered dreams that used to shine. Nights without sleep still cast their heavy shadow, Stretched outside, I search for any sign. [Chorus] London Bridge is falling down, Falling down, falling down. London Bridge is falling down, My serving heart. London Bridge is falling down, Falling down, falling down. London Bridge is falling down… Yet I still stand. [Verse 2] Perhaps an escape, or just a fantasy, Inspired by fame — it’s all just a game we play. Echoes stream that dreams can still come true, But the mundane pulls me back into the grey. [Pre-Chorus] How shall we build it up when every effort fails? Wood and clay will wash away, iron bends and breaks. Still I try to hold the pieces in my hands, Hoping something stronger in the end remains. [Chorus] London Bridge is falling down, Falling down, falling down. London Bridge is falling down, My serving heart. London Bridge is falling down, Falling down, falling down. London Bridge is falling down… Yet I still stand. [Bridge] Build it up with stone so strong, Stone of service, love, and grace. When every other structure falls, This alone will hold its place. Through the shadow, through the strain, Through the nights that have no end — The bridge within still carries weight, And hope is born again. [Final Chorus / Outro] London Bridge is falling down, Falling down, falling down. London Bridge is falling down, My serving heart. London Bridge is falling down… Yet hope is born anew. London Bridge is falling down… The bridge within stands true.
