Within Temptation's "Hand of Sorrow" has a pretty sweet bridge. I think the song is about some hero sworn to defend the kingdom who must leave his loved ones behind to go to war:
"Please forgive me for the sorrow
For leaving you in fear
For the dreams we had to silence
That's all they'll ever be
Still I'll be the hand that serves you
Though you'll not see that it is me"
The deep meaning of the last line, and the climactic crescendo when she sings it is what gets me.
I also like the bridge in Epica's "Another Me":
"All that you’ve taken from others
Will be taken from you
All that your dissonance smothers
Will then come back to you
Whatever happens tomorrow, and whatever you do
Just keep in mind, that the source and end is you"
It doesn't paint the image that the Hand of Sorrow bridge does, but the words just flow so poetically when you hear it in the song.
For what it's worth (it wouldn't count towards this question because it's not lyrical), but my favorite bridge of ALL TIME has to be the instrumental passage in Epica's "Chasing the Dragon". The orchestral bridge in that song that starts around 4:30 is freakin' amazing.....
