Destined to Fail

We're descending from such great heights
The pinnacles we reached are fading out sight
Our pedestal was built so tall
We couldn't bear to watch it fall

Reaching for the stars
We saw our faults in them
With our heads in the clouds
We left the world condemned
Dreaming of heaven as we collapse into hell
Too blind to see how far we fell

The only marks we left were scars
Our only triumphs were made through war
We wanted it all no matter the cost
But what we're fighting for we've already lost

Reaching for the stars
We saw our faults in them
With our heads in the clouds
We left the world condemned
Dreaming of heaven as we collapse into hell
Too blind to see how far we fell
The only marks we left were scars
Our only triumphs were made through war
We wanted it all no matter the cost
But what we're fighting for we've already lost
What we built in the sky, under the surface
All for the sake of wealth, was it really worth it
There is nothing here worthy of grief
Buried underneath with what we believed

Destined to fail
Destined to fail

The wind carries away our dead memories
Our restless tongues have nothing left to say
The silence sings our eulogy
As dirt consumes our legacy

The only marks we left were scars
Our only triumphs were made through war
We wanted it all no matter the cost
But what we're fighting for we've already lost
What we built in the sky, under the surface
All for the sake of wealth, was it really worth it
There is nothing here worthy of grief
Buried underneath with what we believed

The silence sings our eulogy
As dirt consumes our legacy
