"Fan Album" BURNING BRIDGES: lyrics

Yes, that's what I heard yesterday but, as I said, I'm not sure, that's why I didn't post it, I couldn't get a complete line. I'm sure it's not "Are always blaming" but I can't figure out what it is. And I could listen to the song only twice before I got so bored I gave up.

Burning Bridges

“Here’s the last song you can sell.”
“After 30 years of loyalty, they let you dig your grave.”

according to UCR:

"After 30 years of loyalty, they let you dig the grave / Now maybe you can learn to sing or strum along / Well I'll give you half the publishing / You're why I wrote this song."

'We All Fall Down' is such a 'The Circle/What About Now' era song. Definitely has to be from one of them albums.

Thank you so much steel_horse75. I'll transcribe the ones that weren't transcribed from the lyrics video so they can be added to the original post:

4. We All Fall Down - Jon Bon Jovi, John Shanks - 4:05

http://open.spotify.com/track/1Mb1mxSQ3G5g8FvBgKbIkF

Don’t be afraid to lose your way
Take that step, don’t hesitate
Your time is now

Don’t be afraid to scrape your knees
On these streets of shattered dreams
Stand up and be proud
I'm telling you now

Climb every mountain
How high doesn't matter
Don't ever be afraid to fall
Walk out on that wire
Climb every ladder
Keep your back against the wall
And don't be scared to hit the ground
Cause we all fall down

Down on your luck, you're feeling small
The little things seem 10 feet tall
Watch your dreams fall apart at the seams

You wanna scream and shout out loud
When you sit up they knock you down
You're a long way from home
But you're never alone, yeah

Climb every mountain
How high doesn't matter
Don't ever be afraid to fall
Walk out on that wire
Climb every ladder
Keep your back against the wall
And don't be scared to hit the ground
Cause we all fall

We’re all digging in this dirt
We’re all livin’ hand-to-mouth
We’re all trying to fit in
Trying not to chicken out

Life doesn’t wait, don’t hesitate
Don’t lose your faith, it’s judgment day
I’m calling you out, uh-huh
I’m calling you now

Climb every mountain
How high doesn't matter
Don't ever be afraid to fall
Walk out on that wire
Climb every ladder
Keep your back against the wall
And don't be scared to hit the ground
Cause we all fall down

Cause we all fall down
Cause we all fall down

6. Who Would You Die For - Jon Bon Jovi, Billy Falcon - 3:54

http://open.spotify.com/track/4Iq8HiaPE4mv0QpZfeKAF1

When you walked into the party
The guests all disappeared
You dropped in with a group of friends
I didn’t notice they were there
Was it the way your fingers held that glass?
The way your lips broke when you laughed?
I don’t care if the devil’s keeping score
For just one look I'd crawl across the floor

Who would you die for?
Who would you die for?

Will you write me lipstick letters
And miss me when I'm gone?
Wake up tangled in the sheets
Still aching for my arms?
The way you move it's almost holy
Hoping you don't know you own me
All I want is all of you and more
The big bad wolf is knocking at your door

Who would you die for?
Who would you die for?

I wanna know your secrets and your sins
I wanna feel your breathing out and in
I wanna know, I wanna know
 
Who would you die for?
Who would you die for?

[Guitar solo]

I wanna know what makes you feel
I wanna know love truly heals
I wanna know what makes you feel
I wanna know love truly heals
I wanna know what makes you feel
I wanna know love truly heals
I wanna know what makes you feel
I wanna know love truly heals.

When you walked into the party
It was like the guests all disappeared
You dropped in with a group of friends
I didn’t notice they were there
Was it the way your fingers held that glass?
The way your lips broke when you laughed?
I don’t care if the devil’s keeping score.
For just one kiss I'd crawl across the floor.

Who would you die for?
Who would you die for?

I wanna know your secrets and your sins
I wanna feel your breathing out and in
I wanna know, I wanna know
I wanna know

Who would you die for?
Who would you die for?

I wanna know
Who would you die for?
I wanna know
Who would you die for?
I wanna know
Who would you die for?
I wanna know

7. Fingerprints - Jon Bon Jovi, Billy Falcon - 5:58

http://open.spotify.com/track/2AlPLJUMR6q5Ht2xfswfH4

I gave you my fingerprints
Left them all over you
Tangled up in your sheets
This heartache’s the only proof
I gave you my fingerprints
Now just like you they're gone
The man invisible
I'll be him from now on

The last time that I saw them
They were running through your hair
You held one between your lips
And brought another there
The last time that I saw them
I haven't seen them since
No matter who or what I touch
I leave no evidence
I gave you my fingerprints

I said I'd give you everything
But who'd thought you'd take it all
Does a promise really break
If nobody sees it fall?
A hard rain can't wash away
The taste of your memory
Don't know what I would do
If you should stop haunting me

The last time that I saw them
They were running through your hair
You held one between your lips
And brought another there
The last time that I saw them
Unbuttoning your dress
Those pretty pictures in my head
Are the only thing you left
I gave you my fingerprints

[Guitar solo]

That shiny box I gave to you
Was all there was to me
All it was to you
Was just a faded memory

I gave her my fingerprints
Guilty or innocent
I had to ask myself
Would I do it all again?
Would I?

The last time that I saw them
They were running through your hair
You held one between your lips
And brought another there
The last time that I saw them
I haven't seen them since
No matter who or what I touch
I leave no evidence
I gave you my fingerprints

[Guitar solo]

7. Life Is Beautiful - Jon Bon Jovi, Billy Falcon, Chris DeStefano - 3:22

http://open.spotify.com/track/7lRZ8IxTPBz7QK6pLTQGFh

Try to walk on water
You’ll sink just like a stone
Said you’d get home early
But you always stay too long
You've got all the answers
But the answers are all wrong.

I can't save me from my sins
Innocence, my long lost friend
No wind, no rain can wash away
These hallowed words my mouth won't pray
You fly, you fall
Life is beautiful

She's there to lift me up
But I only let her down
A guilty king
Wears a broken crown
She's sweet forgiveness
In a lonesome lost and found

I can't save me from my sins
Innocence, my long lost friend
No wind, no rain can wash away
These hallow words my mouth won't pray
You fly, you fall
Life is beautiful

[Guitar solo]

New gets old
The night gets cold
The sad goodbye
Life is beautiful.

The sky is cracked
We can’t go back
Dry your eyes
Life is beautiful

I can't save me from my sins
Innocence, my long lost friend.
No wind, no rain can wash away
These hallowed words my mouth won't pray

New gets old
The night gets cold
The sad goodbye
Life is beautiful.

The sky is cracked
We can’t go back
Dry your eyes
Life is beautiful

Life is beautiful

10. Burning Bridges - Jon Bon Jovi - 2:44

http://open.spotify.com/track/2dwduHiSONhzwsj8wapwWa

Sayonara
Adios, auf wiedersehen, farewell
Adieu, goodnight, guten abend
Here’s a last song you can sell
Let’s call it “Burning Bridges”
It’s a sing along as well
Ciao, adieu, good nacht, guten abend
Play it for your friends in hell

Someone shut the lights off
Turn the page
The stories I could write
I’ve seen a million faces
And I’ve lived a couple lives
Here’s our history for all to see
The smiles and all the scars
First the rising, then the falling
Call this chapter “Shooting Stars”
That must sound good from where you are!

Sayonara
Adios, auf wiedersehen, farewell
Adieu, goodnight, guten abend
Here’s one last song you can sell
Let’s call it “Burning Bridges”
It’s a singalong as well
Ciao, adieu, good nacht, guten abend
Play it for your friends in hell

Check the box
Mark this day
There’s nothing more to say
After 30 years of loyalty
They let you dig the grave
Now, maybe you could learn to sing
Or even strum along
I’ll give you half the publishing
You’re why I wrote this song
Everybody, sing along!

Sayonara
Adios, auf wiedersehen, farewell
Adieu, goodnight, guten abend
Here’s one last song you can sell
Let’s call it “Burning Bridges”
It’s a singalong as well
Hope my money and my masters
Buy a front row seat in hell

Ciao, adieu, good nacht, guten abend
Play it for your friends in… St. Tropez.

10. Take Back The Night - Jon Bon Jovi, John Shanks - 3:42

http://open.spotify.com/track/30WgqMihXaL6fTWlrBCDcV

These seven days and nights
Are always blending
This so called tragic life
So where’s the happy ending?
Stucked at the traffic light
It’s just the same old song
I’m humming all the words
But I won’t sing along

Listen, I need something different
I’m tired of giving in
Time to start living

We’re going to take back the night
Surrender to me and save my life
Let’s start a fire, let’s start a fight
We’re gonna take back the night

Do you wanna be
Another casualty?
Or the one who stands his ground
When everybody leaves?
It’s time for taking sides
It’s time to face the truth
Too late for turning back
So whatcha gonna do?

Listen, I need something different
There’s no time for reason
I’m tired of bleeding

We’re going to take back the night
Surrender to me and save my life
Let’s start a fire, let’s start a fight
We’re gonna take back the night

[Guitar solo]

Listen, I need something different
I'm tired of dreaming
This time I'm screaming

We’re going to take back the night
Surrender to me and save my life
Let’s start a fire, let’s start a fight
We’re gonna take back the night

Take back the night
We're gonna take back the night

Awesome work, thanks a lot!

One typo I noticed, though: The "shinny" box is just "shiny".
